Been to honda this morning to get some new cat bolts .

Avonvale in Coventry, very helpful and impressed with how well they dealt with customers. They also only charged me 1p for each of the bolts and springs, so the whole lot came to about

 

That is an absolute bargain at

 

If its the ones from the header to the cat they stay on the cat, I had to get the dremmel out and cut the nut in half to get mine off

 

not tempted to replace them with stainless ones?

 

They are specific bolts with two 'heads', one sits against the flange, the other is for the spring to sit against.

Will be fine with some copperslip and yearly cat fitting.

4inch angle grinder came to the rescue.

 

Can you go back and get me some for

 

The nuts on them are odd. Dont feel quite right for a 12mm socket. No wonder they are a pain to remove. Doesnt help that they are deformed to stop them vibrating off.

 

Yep mine were a PITA as well. Can we have a GB @

 

i'm gonna go have a look now
