Long shot, but could anyone here put something like this together for Barndoors?

I, for one, would really appreciate it.

Well volunteered Chris
I know some of the hardware is not available now, ie shape of screwhead etc like the one which holds the deluxe luggage rails down, i think they are called 'philister' head. And most of these snap off when you remove the rails
And all the 8mm bolts have 14mm size heads.
I have just ordered some front beam bolts M14X1.5X100MM high tensile with the same amount of thread as the og one's so if anybody wants any i will have some and can get more.

DIN 316 German Type, Rounded Ear Form, Wing Screws are still available. the closest length i found was 8x16, but i don't think the extra 1mm is gonna be noticeable when installed, and i guess if you were really concerned, you could grind off that 1mm.

http://www.metricmcc.com/productDetails.asp?C=3&PID=7014

i got some 316 screws a while ago to compare them to original safari window wingnuts, because the ones that come with some kits are really crappy, and they were identical to the real ones (in shape, they were not chrome plated). i would think they would be exactly like, or very very similar to the seat wingnuts in the pics above.

Minimum Order Quantity: 25 pieces

and at a price if under $1.50 each, that seems alot cheaper than trying to talk merz out a couple.

I ordered 100 from a retailer in Texas. They were cheaper than the list price in the internet. Shipping to the UK in a global priority mail envelope is $5. If you guys across the pond have trouble finding them send me a PM and I will hook you up.

Johnny, I am talking about these type, but 1 mm longer because everyone knows we run 'em a little longer out here in Cali.

I'll let you know when I get the order.

Secret information: I am going to grind some down to 15mm, dip them in hydrocloric acid, let them rust up a bit and then sell them to suckers as NOS for big bucks!

I need a set of those mirror screws, if anyone has some at a affordable price. I think for $28.00 I'm getting screwed!
