Hi All,
I am trying to track down a source/supplier of the following;
M7 socket head cap screws - any length.
like this;
I know this is a weird size, but for some reason BMW decided to thread the m42 head in M7 where the inlet manifold bolts on.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

Hi
Tom can you not get any BMW bolts? I checked my info and I can only turn up standard m7 bolts, or could you re tap it to 8mm

I was after some M7 socket head capscrews a couple of years ago and drew a complete blank. 
I'm still after some, so if you do find any would you share the info please?

Any half decent machine shop should be able to knock you up a set in no time - may cost a bit though
