Replacing Torx Bolts

[MrSevy]

Ive managed to almost strip the head of the torx bolts on my ICV. Does anyone know where I can get replecements/alternatives? Does anyone know what spec they are?

Regards

Errr, they're standard cross heads on my ICV! 1.8 by any chance?

It's a 1.6 1998 mk1. The whole engine has torx bolts all over it. If i could put sumthin in which was easier to use, such as hexagonal head bolts then it would be miles easier.

Just find another bolt with the same thread. Torx just reffers to the head style, and how the heck did you strip them?!

slippy slippy with the bit.

Thats what im asking: Where can I get these bolts? There must be a spec to them, how else will i know they fit? Whats the spec of the thread?

Measure the bolt or take one to B&Q and compare it to the ones they sell. It will be a standard M size.
