Rear dickie seat (GQ)

[Clunk]

Would anyone happen to know what size type bolts are used to secure the rear dickie seat in the back of a '94 GQ?

Don't know the size, but you can have mine in a few weeks time if you need some - seat is coming out to make way for a storage system ... probably be easier to pick up some locally though than post across the country though!!! lol ... but the offer is there ...

Hahahaha too true mate. Will kep on looking and trying. Haven't used it yet and won't be a permanent fixture, only needed when carting the in outlaws around.

I have just taken mine out to allow more room in the back And the size of the bolts are 7mm. Hope this helps.

Thanks Roger, I don't suppose you know if they're imperial or metric?

Automotive ... don't ask me what that means, but everytime I go down to the Bolt King, they tell me "that's automotive mate, don't know where you'd pick one up" and proceed to sell me a metric equivalent ...

metric and imperial is just the unit system of measurement.
aka 7mm is is metric along with meters and kilometers, while imperial is like inches and feet.

or am i getting it all mixed up and they have seperate meanings?

You are quite correct but I believe when it comes to bolts, the pitch and distance between the thread is different. For example a 3/8's in bolt won't fit into a 9 or 10mm threaded hole, or visa versa coz the thread is different............... I think lol

does anyone know if they need to be high tensile?
