Should I replace it just with one from the hardware store or an auto supply store or do I need to get something specific?

the one for the tank is the same one that is on the rear fender(for the taillight mount).
part number 84703-425-000. it was $4.98
you can also take a piece of fuel line (clear)and cut it down the middle, and run it along each side of the tank where it is close to the frame. hopefully that makes sense. i got the new grommet and still had to do that. and you cant see it with the fairings on it also saves the paint when putting the tank on and off.

Ok, I found a parts site that lists the parts straight from the manual. All parts are OEM and are listed individually according to their numbers in the manual and in the blow-out photos.
One of the items I found is the pad for under the tank and something called "Tank Rubber".
See them here- #12 for pad and #13 for the rubber
My questions is this, do you think I need 2 of the pads or would it ome as a set for both the elft and right (there's no option to get one or the other which is usually how it'd be done if they're different) and do you thin the rubber would be of help too? Not sure where that rubber would really go and I can't see to find it anywhere on my bike. Not sure if it has to do with the possible rattling of the tank or not.
Also, what do you all think of their prices? If I replaced all the nuts and bolts that I am missing on my bike I am close to $140, and that's a bit more than I really want to be spending of nuts and bolts (not even any plastics in that price).
Thanks for the assistance!

This site is retty good actually,they have live assistan with custome service person via chat. I spoke with someone that said I need only order one pad and taht the Tape item is double sided tape, of which you'd have to buy multiple pieces of (damn, for $3.78 each, I think not). Didn't ask about the "Tank Rubber", I just removed it form my cart for now.
Took off a few other items that aren't *needed* right now and got the price down to less just below $100.

Yeah that might be a good idea anyway, I seem to have already scratched the home-made paint job the prior owner had done just from replacing the air filter and looking for the cause of my tank rattle.

i dont know if that rubber mat would help or not. i think that my tank has that mat but that it still rattled, i did the fuel line and its gravy now. i guess that you would have to find out where its rattling. if its a front to back rattle then new grommets would prob. fix it. if its a side to side then try hose.
if you can go to a hardware store and get the nuts and bolts, you are prob. looking at about 15.00 versus 100.00 like home depot or something.
