So today one of my rocker cover bolts sheared off in the head:(

What is the torque settings on these things? I just did it by hand and "nipped them up" and the last one went pop!

Can anyone tell me the sized easy out I needa go find?
:(

you can get a full kit for about $30 from any good tool shop, it may cost u near $20 just to get the size u particually need.
i bought a full set for 30 and ive used almost each size since....well worth it imo

make sure u keep the head covered when drilling it out, and keep the drill dead straight coz u dont wanna hit the thread of the head

Well cheers for the advice I got that bolt out with an easy out set:) ended up needing a few sizes to try so thankyou..

On a side note I took the old girl for a nice 200km drive last night and she didn't skip a beat! Sounded unreal going through the tunnels at full noise at the early hours;)

One thug is I get heaps of wind noise from my rear door seals. I think they need new rubbers.
Has anyone found a good replacement?

Polyair/drag bags are installed! Next week hopefully I can fill the car with groomsmen and not scrape fingers crossed..

You can go to rarespares online and buy them i think there $40 each :| cant remember exactly but i need them too! for the time being just undo the door catch knock it in a couple of mm, and you will have to slam the doors but it will stop the leak! then theres no rush to fix it...
