Help me find this bolt

[qooqiiu]

Ok so this is an M5 x 10 bolt. How ever it is different as it's head is only slightly bigger than the thread. I have typed "small diameter head bolt" into google but cannot find anything similar. Has it got a specific name? A regular m5x 10 bolt would not fit as the head would be too large for the hole it sits in.

Here are two images of said bolt...





Thanks in advance.

It is a "security" bolt for the TT/R8 wing mirror

I want to replace it with a SS or even a titanium bolt. The OEM bolt is stupidly soft and the 2.5mm hex rounds off easily.

If you give me the dimensions of the bolt I can make you a couple in A4 Stainless, I have some M5 x 10 Socket Cap and a lathe?

Wow what an offer!

Thank you Rob. Il PM you. I'd happily post you one of the bolts so you can copy it.

Whenever you change the wing mirrors. So...not that often.

But mine are not seated correctly and one has rounded off and my particular nature doesn't like the fact that they aren't correct. I want it right.

This particular bolt is NOT easy to get hold
Of. As I say in the first post.

I have emailed bobrick. Not sure it's gone through tho.

I decided to buy a pair of new arms and enlarge the hole. Soft ally so it wasn't hard. Had to lopp off a cm of thread for the new bolt but that was ok too.

Big thank you to Rob for his offer though.
