Title: Front guard nuts Post by: Mc Bean on July 13, 2010, 07:32:01 PM Hi guys,
Looks like I have bombed out on Bosch leadlight parts, :( But does anybody have a set of (4) lower sill clips with nut inserts where the lower rear front guards bolt to for sale. bolts also I am in Newcastle & will pay for freight.

As an alternative find an electronic installer who installs equipment in racks and ask for rack nuts. These are normally metric. The ones I used were metric however I ran a 1/4" UNC tap through them and all seems well.

As I could not get any originals I followed Kieth's idea, and come across 6mm cage nuts - Available from Cetnaj Electrical Sandgate store, also available from J R Turks electrical both have stores Aus wide. (not everywhere :D :D :D) Unbelievable how close they are to original, but as Kieth's comments if you don't want metric run an imperial tap through them.

I think Quad electrical does a lot of "LEGO" pre fab switchboards they probably have a heap as well. too easy |
