Captive nuts for front bash-plate
GaryD: I tried my local dealer to get the M6 captive nuts which are used to hold the protection plate which mounts between the front bumper and the front suspension frame. They told me they were no longer available. CJ & Brickyard confirmed this.
A chance comment led to the information that the under-engine tray of the Passat (year 2000 was suggested) uses similar fixings. A further enquiry with the dealer confirmed this and an order has produced the ten needed. They seem to be essentially identical to the Transporter fixings.
Part number is N-901-686-04 and they are 64p each.
Hope this is helpful.
Simon Baxter: Problem is the width, any "normal" fixing, spire(speed) clip sort of thing are too wide to fit the VW hole. I think Wurth do some narrow ones but any normal nut and bolt place will struggle. Drill and rivnut them, use hex head, integral washer self tappers with speed (spire) clips for the sides, the back three are M8 x 16 ish with a repair washer!
