Camber bolts, about £30 from Demon Tweaks, or alternative use more expensive eccentric top mounts.

You will always get it when lowering.

What would happen if I just used a thinner bolt instead of 1 of these camber bolts? this would give me the adjustment I need? Or if I made the bolt hole bigger in the strut so I had some more adjustment?

You remove the top bolt out of the 2 that hold the strut to the steering knuckle and put the control bolt in there.
