Default Turbo to downpipe studs

Hi,

I need 2 of the above, one for my car and one for a turbo I'm selling. Do any of the tuners sell them?

Cheers,
Jamie

I think most motor factors should sell them, I ended up getting them from Halfords for frees (end of stock)

Not calling you a liar mate but very unlikely you got them from halfords as these are metric fine with a 1,25 pitch halfords only did metric course which are 1.5 pitch .not many places keep stock of metric fine

Like I said end of line stock, the guy behind the counter couldn't even price them as they were end of stock & no price avaible. They would have ended up in the bin. So had a handful of different lengths & thread sizes
I dont carry a thread (ring) gauge with me so just tried the old fashion way with a nut. Anyway they fitted fine to my turbo/up-pipe no problems for the last 2 years.

Thanks guys, so I guess taking the above into account it is unlikely I will get them from Halfrauds/motor factor, but maybe worth a try??

Does anyone know where I can definitely get them, to save me ringing round?

Thanks fellas. Just realised there are 5 on my old up-pipe and I'm pretty sure they are the same size, so I could swipe a couple of those couldn't I?
