Hi, does anyone know the size of the socket /Allen bolt that hold the soft top frame to the side of the car next to the doors please? The large ones which allows the roof to swivel up and down.

Thanks

I don't know the answer but maybe you could fit the end of a drill bit into it and measure the drill bit. Might that help?

I think bolt is M10 which should be an 8mm hex key/socket?

Yes the bolts are M10 but because they are dome head they have a smaller hex size of 6mm.

A standard cap head will be 8mm hex.
