#1 Heater flap fixing size
Bit of a long shot but does anybody know the bolt size that holds the heater flaps to the bulkhead? All of mine are going to break as I take them off as they're pretty rusted in. The first one broke off quite easily

Okay thanks. They looked a lot smaller than 1/4"? Will have another look when it's light.
