Chequer plate fixings
I am replacing the aftermarket rear corners on my 90 with genuine and now see the fixing holes are countersunk, so presumably for bolts/nuts?

Does anyone know what size please - I am thinking maybe M6 x 20mm Question

Thumbs Up Rob

From memory, they're M5's but if aftermarket then the only way to be sure is to take one out and have a look. Darren

Thumbs Up but I can't measure that accurately with a ruler and saw that YRM sell M6 for this purpose so have ordered and will soon find out if they are the wrong size Rolling Eyes

That's great, thanks - though maybe not so good for measuring holes, but I'll have a look around the rest of their site Confused

It should be perfect for sizing holes - that's what I use mine for:
