I used allen head bolts.   They are not stainless but they are black 
something and they are not  rusty.

Another thing I thought was a good idea is I installed little  tiny o rings 
on the bolts.  When you do this it seals the bolts  against the lense, keeps 
them from coming loose and adds another cushion  to the lense so you are less

likely to crack.
