Hi Folks,
Any tips on attaching the horn Grilles?
The studs are short and tiny.....Fine for a steel body but no use on my fiberglass kit. Any idea what size the studs are, M3 too big....
Cheers
Gerry

Gerry, are you using the rubber horn grilles under them too? They look much better with them and stop the paint from scratching too.

you should be able to unscrew the studs from the horn grille and take them to a decent old fashioned ironmongers type place that sells nuts and bolts individually and pick some that fit. I dont know the size as mine are already fitted. Careful when you put the studs back in as the grilles are really soft and if you over tighten it will show a dimple on the other side.
