Where in TV&S can I get a seat belt bolt?

[kiwifraser]

Tried Ebay, Demon Tweeks, Google Search, etc, but they all only have eye bolts instead of standard bolts.

I need to put the new harnesses into the back of the bug, and I am one bolt short!

They need to be 7/16 UNF (and I guess 8.8 high tensile strength). Happy to go to a breaker if I can get a new one.

There used to be a Beetle parts company over in Slough - can't recall the name, but do recall their location. Although this was a few years ago now.

Is that near Montys Phil?

If so, I'm popping over there within the next 2 hours.

So practically opposite?

Fraser, if you want me to pop in and have a look just let me know.

The problem I have is that they need to fit modern fia approved harness plates. The beetle ones I have seem to be a different thread

Cheers for the offer Rob. Hopefully I will have one in about 10 minutes

7/16 is the same size as most older yank wheel nuts threads, so maybe NorthantsTyres in Fleet will have some


(of course only if you've had no luck)

Thanks Bernie! Much appreciated

Yet more proof why PH is a great place

No problem.

As it happens, I had a drive around that estate for the best part of 10 minutes and couldn't even find the place. Either it's very well hidden or not there anymore..

Glad you got it sorted!
