not much in the way of garages or wrecking yards to reference this type of stuff over here and I am a long way from my bug back home.

this is for the t1 box and t4 engine. should be coming together shortly as I have some time off work

M10x1.5 pitch.
Case should have studs, so you will just need matching nuts and washers.
Top will need a bolt, nut and some washers.
RHS is longer since it passes through the starter as well.

Because you will be bolting up aluminium, make sure that you use big fat flat washers. Lock washers are not usually used.

The top bolts are 70 and 110 mm long for type 1 and type IV.
