Aaggh! Rear seat bolts
All
I’m really struggling to find RYG500960 which are the M8x18 torq bolts with washer which the ones that attach the forward facing rear seats to the tub. Apparently JLR are not making them anymore.
I assume these are high tensile given their role and so am hesitant to just use any M8 bolts. Any thoughts/sources/alternatives are greatly received as I want to get the seats in (previous owner removed, I’ve got another pair from here to go in 👍)
Thanks as always

Any socket head "Allen bolt" should be 10.8 strength, but as they're only going into captive mild steel inserts I cannot imagine properly installed std 8.8 bolts would fail.

Just type "M8 x 20 torx" or "M8 x 20 Cap Screw" in your preferred Web search tool.
Add some plain 8mm washers to the order.
They're nothing special

Maybe use AYG100240 .... but these are M8x25. They are the used for attaching the rear end of the tub to the chassis. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing
