Afternoon all,
I am hoping someone out there can tell me what size screw hole, and/ or screw this is. I have two holes in the right side engine bay, near the large set of fuses are that I want to use to mount my fuse box into. The screws that support the fuel filter fit nicely into these but I do not know what size I need to get.
If I could get some assistance with this please, that would be super.
Many Thanks
Adam

Do you mean bolts??? hard to say as I dont have one but M8 ???? actually looks more like M6
Just take one out from somewhere not vital and go to you local bolt bloke.
Mate in a similar situation what I done, is visit the nut 'n bolt shop, and just asked the bloke if I can try some guess sizes till I found one that fits, then bought them.
Cheers mate, yes bolts/ screws same but different :) My topic heading would not have sounded the same if I had: Im bolted.Quote:

I stripped one yesterday and had to retap it.
At the risk of being pedantic, a 'set screw' is a bolt that has no shank i.e. the thread goes right up to the head.
Yeah, I know, we all call them bolts anyway.. :)
Muddy,
strippers are good, screws are good but where you've just been definitely aint
Be strong
