You'll need the U clamps and appropriate bushing.

If you know what manufacturer it is I would call them and ask them for a price etc. Should be less than $20. I needed the same thing for my rear bar and was able to do this.

You'll use the existing bolts from your existing sway bars.

I'm not very clear on what exactly you are looking for. IIRC, the only hardware that came with my H-sport bars were:
2x polyurethane bushings
2x bushing brackets
1x packet of grease

The bushings and brackets replace the OEM components, which are too small to fit the larger bar.

Contact Hotchkis for the hardware:
Hotchkis Performance

12035 Burke Street Suite 13

Santa Fe Springs, Ca 90670

(877)-4-NOROLL

(877)-466-7655
