I `m replacing the existing fluoresent fixture in the kitchen, with one

that
is a bit heavier. What are the proper bolts? to attach these fixtures to
the ceilng? Thanks.

It is always nice if you can get a screw or two into the ceiling joists.

Most times you can't. 2-4 toggle bolts 1/8" size will hold it just fine. 2
will hold most 2 tube fixtures and the only reason I would use 4 would be to
pull it flush to the ceiling all around.
