Threading into metal
Yeah it’s not that important that they are security bits.I could let you have some but they are anoying!
You don’t need the cab to be tamper proof no more so get some stainless steel hex head ( star bits ).
Keep it easy
The manual definitely says plastic bolt. M8 20mm ones at while the ones that go through the front of the steering panel are metal M8 30mm ones.what are they threading into? is it metal or plastic, they don't mean bolts that fix into plastic as apposed to plastic bolts do they
only have later ID/Outrun 2 type which shows 6x M8 Bolts, 2 each side of dash and 2 underneath
Maybe because there's a lot of wiring looms in behind the dash and there's a small chance a metal bolt could cut into them. This was dispensed with by the time Model 3 cabs came out and it was just six m8x30 metal tamperproof bolts for the dash.The manual definitely says plastic bolt. M8 20mm ones at while the ones that go through the front of the steering panel are metal M8 30mm ones.
Why the bottom ones need to be plastic, I don’t know. This is a model 2 cab so may be different to an ID/Outrun 2 cab
I just removed two ferrai f355 …I find it really odd to use plastic ones, unless it was a safety thing if something happens it just breaks the plastic bolts
