What size rivets are used to fasten the bumper / mudguards?

Postby maushawk » Tue Jun 19, 2018 12:19 pm

As title says... I want to remove the rear plastic bumpers and front mudguards of my Mk7 to check for rust and seal the edges, what size rivets will I need to reattach them?

Or, where can I find out that info - is there a technical manual I can download/buy?

There is a technical manual but it does not help you with the sizes of screws/rivets etc.

The best source for what sizes are is an online catalogue. Transit mk7 online cat
mk7 08reg 2.4 T350 LWB MHR RWD
mk6 X reg 2.4 T350 LWB MHR RWD - scrapped
mk4 J reg 2.5 L300 LWB MHR RWD - sold on

Notice a trend there ? not too big and not too small

Awesome, thanks! Looks like they're listed as 4.8mm x 13mm blind rivets.
