harrytr5 Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 I have trailed the internet with no luck. The length and width 1" x 1/2" and all I can find are around 1/2" in length or 1" by 3/4" which are the wrong size. The picture is from a TR4 dash and are there for the centre Gauge plate and to screw into. Can you help? Regards Harry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malcolm Tatton Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 Ebay seems to sell similar sizes to those found by Roger (but none 1" x 1/2") https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Screw-Size-6-8-10-12-14-Speed-Fasteners-U-Nuts-Spire-Nut-Clip-Auto-Capive-Clips/252640367866?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D226055%26meid%3Df04e5d6bd7f24bf882c10cd7f04a57fb%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpf%26sd%3D192585500041%26itm%3D252640367866%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithBBEV1Filter&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jerrytr5 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Harry, I have some 1 x 5/8 which could be filed down. I thought they were the wing fixing ones. Jerry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 The screw hole is important. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harrytr5 Posted March 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Thanks for the replies and I have tried to source these with no luck. I am going to rivenut 5mm and use a 5mm screw. Thanks all, Regards Harry TR5 Nutter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 HI Harry, rather than a rivnut why not make a spire type clip. Easy enough to do. You do not need fancy spring steel etc. Simple mild steel will work. The beauty of these is that the hole floats to where you need it. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
