another bolt problem

[skydiver]

managed to remove the buggered bolt in my rear seats, as im getting a full set of VXR seats tomorrow. removed my rear seats tonight in readiness for them to be fitted tomorrow, and one of the bolts, this time on the front side has gone pete tong. the bolt is fine, but the thread in the hole in the car floor is a bit chewed up. this is the larger bolt with the T50 head that holds the seatbelt buckle to the car so needs sorting.

does anyone know what the thread size is on it at all?? and more to the point, have the correct size tap i could borrow to run down the hole and clean the thread so i can get the bolt back in

cheers all!!

I see youve bought them half leathers. Great buy mate

I wouldve had them if I never had my custom seats and then again no point adding to the bill on the car when it may not be staying too long

cheers mate! picking them up tomorrow, along with a vxr racing steering wheel, chris is coming with me to fit the steering wheel.

dosent solve my problem with tthe bolt though haha. id keep your seats, one of a kind and they look real nice.

Thats sorted then. Ive got a couple of bits on the way from him but now found out I dont even need them. Oh well never mind.

Well look on the bright side.. You'll have a lovely VXR interior.

sure is. i cant wait!!!! gonna be a massive transformation indeed!!

i think the bolt is 7/16" so need a tap for that size i believe. i hope someone on here can help, looks like a UNF thread anyway.

Did you read my PM mate ? a nut and bolt of a smaller diameter will suffice...

[skydiver]

Yeah i did mate. That will do for the time bieng but i would rather sort it properly really. Ive got a few taps but sadly the wrong size lol.
