RE: [doc] sheered bolts

["chrisparnham" <chrisparnham1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can remember when Martin was a cheapskate just like you Rich! 
 
 BTW Martin, very measured comments from you tonight,  thanks, I thought
you may turn both barrels on to me  also for being a "tight wad" as Dave
H  would say. 
 
I fitted Gully's (DMUK's)  number plates yesterday, and just checked
them out tonight with my 4 side lights on..very cool looking...
 
Best regards

Oh, I have *lots* of experience with this :)

The simplest, cheapest and quickest method, is to hacksaw the snapped
studs off level with the spoiler, and then put a drill straight through.

Then just use standard nut/bolt with big washers and plenty of copper
grease

I think Aldi are doing a nice nuts and bolts kit with big penny washers
in it at the moment :)
