Default Any Standard Fasteners or All Metric?

I am currently assembling a little tool roll to keep in my GX and haven't done much wrenching on this specific vehicle yet to tailor it to my needs. I'm sure as time goes on I can do that, but right now I just want a good general assortment. With that being said, has anyone found any standard size fasteners/bolts on the GX or are they all metric? Seeing as it is a Japanese vehicle, I would assume everything is metric, but just wanted to check with folks who have spent more time with the platform. Thanks in advance!

All metrics. You need more than one 10mm because everyone knows gremlins love those 10mm sockets and always take them when you need them the most. Lol.

Thanks! LOL @ the dreaded 10mm. I've got about 8 empty 10mm spaces in my garage tool chest.

Other than US Auto manufacturers, I am not sure if there is anyone else using Standard any more All imports are using Metrics.

10, 12, 14 and 17mm are the most common. 19 and 21 are on some of the bigger bolts, and the lugs. Get 6 point sockets over 12 and you’ll strip less heads.
