Advice offered with no guarantees or assumed liability:
I assume that the captive nuts are stripped, not the bolts - correct? If it's the bolts, just get new ones!
For the captive nuts, the easiest way that I know to repair these is to go to a "plus" size, i.e. for an M6 bolt replace it with an M7 bolt of similar length or perhaps you can get away with using a 1/4-inch bolt (6.35mm) instead. In either case, you will have to drill/retap the hole for the new bolt, and you might need to enlarge the hole in the frame very slightly.
