TomoHawk Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 You know- those 10mm hex head/phillips screws that are all over the Z car... Is that what you call them? Where do you get those at, or can I buy a bunch from somebody? thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 You mean those small ones that connect the dash to the unibody? If so, how many do you need? Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomoHawk Posted September 23, 2003 Author Share Posted September 23, 2003 The ones I'm referring to are used to attach the air cleaner to the radiator support, the brackets under the rear deck, the door pulls, and so on... 10mm hex head with the phillips slots & a washer. I I think it's 5 x 1.25mm threads? 've broken the heads off about 6 so far, so I'm out of spares. And I don't want to mix fasteners so I end up carrying more tools to fix anything that might happen. thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Hmmm, I'll have to look into it--but I have no time till the weekend. If they are the same rather short screws, I have "a few" from the parts car that I could send you. Again, I have no time until the weekend, sorry.

Georgia Flash Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Man I know exactly what bolts you are talking about. And yes they are all over the Z and ZX. I saw a set once on ebay and I made a couple of bids on them but lost. There is a web site somewhere where you can go and buy a brand new stainless set of bolts I can't remember what it is off the top of my head but if I run across it I will give you a hollar.

TomoHawk Posted September 23, 2003 Author Share Posted September 23, 2003 Those screws are all over under the hood- coil, heat shields, fuel filter, charcoal cannister, the trouble light, the inspection doors, hood bumperettes, what else? I'll try ebay, what do you think about going to the dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgia Flash Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Dealer usually means $$$$$ however, those that were on ebay were not cheap either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomoHawk Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 I found out that the threads are 6mm, with standard pitch (1.25 I think). I got a few hex head (just in case) and some round head phillips ( for the door pulls.) All were 25mm length. I'm still going to look for some flange head for under the hood ( for a stock look.) Those should be hex head so you can wrench them down good. the round head are more for looks. Still couldn't figure out what the threads are for the screws on the dash/console.

TomoHawk Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 Dude, McMaster is only 20 minutes from me. I've looked on there already a few times and the best they got is flanged socket-head stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomoHawk Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 Plenty of Pan head philips, but no flanged, hex head phillips. Thanks for the effort tho, I've already seen the same things you pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
