Anyone know what size bolts for engine protection bars ?

Post by John Potter »

Hi folks,
Stupid question time.
I need to get some big bolts to put the engine protection bars on (both ends) and I need some captive nuts & bolts/screws for the front bash plate.
Any idea what sizes i need and where I can get them from ?.
Thanks,,,,,

The big bolts are
M10x65 2 off
M10x25 2 off
M10 nyloc nut 4 off
A10.5 flat washer 8 off

The Bashplate fixings are VW parts but ordinary M8 nuts and bolts will do

Your local engineers supplies or hardware store will have all you need

Surely, if its' a diesel, the rear engine tray mounts with M12s?

Yes indeed but I searched ETKA and found no reference for these bolts which is odd
