Hello again .
Haven't been on for a while. sorry.
Question. Fitting new (used) 7 wire ignition switch to my 03. (Not started yet though- she's in constant use- at least until the existing ignition barrel fails altogether.)
Right. I know all about drilling out the old screws etc. stud extaction and whathaveyou. that's all fine - I'm in engineering.
No. my question is, does anyone know what size the replacement bolts will need to be ? ie: are they M8, and by what length.and do they have to be countersunk?
Asking in advance, coz I can get some 316L Stainless cap-heads from work.(M6/M8/M10) I just want to have all the bits there ready before I start. (I know Iknow, these could be removed by the Pikeys, but I don't want to use any snap off type of stuff, in case I need to do it again myself. remember - this will be a second hand unit I'm fitting anyway. My intention was to Loctite the cap heads in, then fit some black rubber caps over them to hide the shineyness (Is that even a word???)
PS. sorry if there is already a thread on this one - but I couldn't see owt.
Any help greatly appreciated.
