All the bolts on the outer parts of the engine bay??

Wing bolts, headlight bolts, slam panel bolts, bonnet stay bolts

I had a look on dialogys but to be honest I don't know what I'm looking for and where :oops:

Headlight and slam panel ideally as the wing ones really should be blue but they look shit once they've been off a couple of times!!

Cheers

think your looking for M6, usually if a 10mm spanner fits it then you can say its M6 but as with everything there are exceptions but easy way round it is take a sample with you to your local fastener stockist :) :)

Well I'd be ordering online so I can't do that really, plus I could do with lengths aswell...

Actually I could get the lengths off mine :D

I know the headlight ones have a 10mm hex head as I just put mine back on the car the other day. Is that any use?

hi mate most of the bolts are pretty standard metric sizes

headlights are M6 x 1.0 i think 20mm maybe 25mm iirc

slam panel are M8 x 1.25 20mm again i think..

wings are a funny thread i think and srew into retaining clips but can be replaced with a nut and bolt and washers...

can get loads of cheap stainless cap headed bolts from screwfix etc

or standard from loads of online places..
