Default Coil Pack Cover Bolts Have Dropped Out

I noticed this morning that all of the bolts that hold the pack on have dropped out. I am sure that they can be sourced without going to a stealer.

Anyone know what size they are?

TIA

They are M6 X 18 Cap screws - I got mine from Stagonset but they are not taking orders at the moment

The closest I got was M6 x 20 and not many places sell individuals.

Otherwise it's Honda PN is 96600-06018-07

They can come loose from vibration, bit of weak threadlock goes down a treat

Also come loose if you have had the rockercover powdercoated - mine took 2 or 3 attempts at tightening them before they held secure - suprising how tight they have to be to stay in place.

Not too much otherwise you won't get the bolts out next time you need to.

When I fitted my powder coated coil cover recently I used stainless steel cap-headed setscrews which I obtained on-line from Namrick. Their site is easy to use, and you can buy items individually. I bought a of selection of setscrews and washers to replace any which were showing signs of rusting in the engine bay.

Hi Loon,

FYI the screws I bought online from Namrick were M6 x 16 Socket Cap Head Screws (in A2 Stainless Steel), and they cost 12p each, not including shipping (which varies depending on how many items you are buying), and VAT.
