      You can pick them up on eBay, not a bad deal that!
      
      Also available from a dealer, part number #46419734 or #51810310 but according to ePer they'll only sell them in packs of 20.
      
      I've replaced all mine with black M6 bolts and penny washers.
      
      All the best

      Mullered undertray fixings fixed
      
      Like most 147's, when I bought the car, most of my undertray fixings were rusted and knackered. One had a broken bolt rusted into it, two were spinning in the chassis so couldn't be undone. A previous owner/garage had mashed some of the heads. The tray had had to be forcibly removed in the past, and was dangling on cable ties. Ugh. (and now an MOT fail I think).
      
      I replaced the knackered rivnuts a while back with stainless ones, and got one of the eBay Polish £30 undertrays, which fits fine. But finding the black T30 caphead bolts at a sensible price was another matter, and ****ty silver Allen-heads with big washers did the job meanwhile but looked wrong.
      
      If anyone else suffers a similar degree of Alfa-OCD, you'll be pleased to know these are dirt cheap, and exactly what you need. £7.40 for 15 inc post is a lot better than £3.50-£4.90 each when you need 9 of them. Mine turned up from Lithuania pretty quick. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/15x-TORX...NCIA-CITROEN-ALFA-ROMEO-46419734/121883124682
      
      And use Copaslip, of course.

      Service again today!
      
      Did this one back-to-back with the GF's Hyundai too.. I must say the air-filter on her i10 is a touch easier than the GT
      
      Pulled the H7R HID's out too and returned to a set of +130% halogens... HIDs in the Alfa reflector housings just don't work in my experience.. Back to high output halogens, and have re-aimed the beam with the knobs on the units instead. See how we get on with them instead!

      You beauty!
      
      I was just cursing mine today as the rivnuts have started spinning and the threads on the bolts are corroded away to dust. What size rivnuts did you use?
