I'm after the 4 bolts that hold the decklid to the hinges on a 61 beetle. My bolts have worn threads and rattle loose.
Cheers.

They're just a standard M6 thread... 15-20mm long.

Easy enough to pick up from Bunnings or somewhere like that for maybe a buck or two for the 4.

Cheers. I'll look into it tomorrow. I've been too lazy to remove one and take it into Bunnings.
