Hi, has anyone used and know the size of the rubber cavity fixings for the rear arches when the rivnuts give up the ghost?

Have to repair my existing arches on my ex academy car and some fixings have just disappeared all together.

Thanks

Yes, I've used a few on my car from here http://www.eliseparts.com/products/show/64/420/raw... I got a few in both sizes and used whichever fitted best (sorry I can't remember which)

The other option is to go for something like this. Caterham Nylon Bolt Rear Wing Fastner Pack

Those fastenings are available in a huge range of sizes on ebay.
I think they would be a good way to get around the problem.

Cheers thanks for the tips will try a couple of sizes and replace the existing ones with nylon fixings.
