I had exactly the same problem with bolts being too short as did I believe Steve H. I contacted STW and they sent me some longer ones. Which did the Job.

Thanks I've just emailed dean with the requirements for the bolts but I now wish I waited for an answer after drilling and countersinking the bolts supplied into my perch bracket! Guess a new set of bolts and bracket is in order :/ thanks for the reply tho

Just checked have only got one spare bolt, your welcome to it if you want it.But as you have already emailed STW , sure thet will sort you out.
The ones that Steve supplied me were 8BA x 1" and they did the job.
