Hi all
Anybody any ideas where I could get a bolt for the Zetec cover?
I am looking to put my FRP back on the road after 4 years of SORN and noticed I have chrome bolt missing.
Ford don't have any even though it is the same as the Fiesta.
Don't want to strip the others so any information would be much appreciated.

As the years go by the head for the hex bit wears and rusts, possibly due to overtightening. I have replaced the ones on my Red Puma with M6 flange head stainless set screws. The 3 that hold the cover to the inlet manifold are longer, so you'll need 2 different lengths.

They are just button head bolts. You can buy them on ebay
