Side Tube fixings bolts...
These seem to shear with monotonous regularity,and try as a few of us have,nobody seems to do the fixing bolts on their own.I've had 2 sets made up already for me and 2 other members,and I need some more as I can't find my spares
Just wondered if anyone else wants some and I'll see if I can get a decent price for a job lot ?
To make life easier,and to keep track of numbers,the sign-up is for 6 bolts at the moment.
I will then get a price per unit,and people can decide if they're in or out at a later date

I'm in Euan
Why can't companies just make extras at the time?
Wonder how many folk have side tubes ?
Do the side steps use the same fixings?
Nuff said

Went in today and they're going to work out at £3.25+vat each...basically 4 quid per bolt based on an order of 120 bolts....
I don't have any particular views on that price as I have nothing to compare them to.
