E46Driver330Ci Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) I am looking at some replacement bolts and shocked by the online prices. Back when I was buying bolts from the dealer a long time ago, I don't remember ever paying £3.5 for a small ordinary bolt. So I am thinking of buying them from china. For that kind of money I could probably get gold or silver ones from china The problem is I know nothing about bolt specs. Perhaps someone can help? As an example, part 06 at https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BD53-USA-02-2004-E46-BMW-330Ci&diagId=11_2180 Is that same as the size here for M6x25-8pcs? www.aliexpress.com/item/32867000323.html I am not concerned about the material/metal differences. I just want the same size/thread fit. Edited April 1, 2020 by E46Driver330Ci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E46Driver330Ci Posted April 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) Good man. I think I can use the slightly weaker stainless steel bolts in place of the lightly loaded bolts. 25p each shipped, lol.
