Well bugger it, one of the bonnet bolts on my 205 has sheared off and I need a new bolt, simple enough you may think but there is no (practical) way for me to get into the inner wing to attach a nut to it. Is it possible to get a bolt with an expanding head so it will go into the hole and grip or could I use a wall plug type arrangement instead?

Ta!

Use a rivnut. I use the set from Wurth but you can get them from several suppliers.
