Default Head Bolts for my 1998 (UK) Turbo 2.0

Hi

Anyone know where I can get a set of new head bolts for this car ? (EJ20G engine).

I've tried ebay , and a couple of local motor factors .. no joy.

(I'm in Reading by the way , however, I guess someone must do decent ones by mail order?)

Thanks - Mark

For info everyone, managed to order a set from AtoZ www.azmotors.co.uk by mail order, for approx £67 all in , (the dealer wanted £106).

Not arrived yet, so can't vouch , but thought I'd update the forum.

Thumbs up

They are stretch bolts as far as I know. Len at Subaru4You used new bolts on my MY97WRX when he changed the headgaskets for me. He is in Thatcham not too far from you.
