I'll need to place a front plate on my car, I have the OME bracket but I can't figure out what size screws fit the threads that the the plugs came out of.
Any help?

 

6m x 1.00

 

Thanks

 

In Canada, we spec M6 x ____ mm

M as in metric 6mm screw diameter and the ____ for screw length in millimeters

 

The metric system is different in Canada? That is how Honda wrote them in their parts guide too. Useless to find the right size at the hardware store though.

There are three measurements for a bolt, diameter, thread pitch and length. Length depends on what you are mounting and can differ. Diameter and thread pitch does not.



M6 x 15mm x 1.00 is the stock size.

 

Yes, although the pitch is usually redundant unless you need a non-standard alternative. I don't remember seeing M6 with anything other than 1?

Just wanted to clarify for OP.

 

You very seldom see anything but the coarse thread on autos, but the fine-thread is sometimes used in other things. And depending on where you purchase, the thread pitch could quite easily be important if they sell both coarse and fine threads.

 

The local dealer gave the screws and they were marked 6mm only.

But I ran into another issue, the one side dropped down and out of sight! I was able to fish it out the bottom through the grill. It looks like the bumper will need to be taken off to put it back into place. Any ideas?

What I did do was to find a rubber button that fit into the hole, with a self tapping screw into the rubber I was able to mount the bracket and not to any damage to the body until I figure out how to get that piece back into place. I'm guessing that it slides onto two tits with a speed nut holding it on. Any ideas?
