Wanted front bolt for z3 hardtop

Post by deni2s »

Looking for front bolt for fitting z3 hardtop (missing one bolt), if you have one, please let me know. The hardtop season is very close...
Was checking at local bmw dealer and they told me, that minimum order is 20 bolts (each costs about 10 GBP, so very costly).

Go to a diferent dealer. I literally bought one single front hard top bolt yesterday from my local BMW main dealer and they got it in within 3 hours at a cost of £9 I think.
Ridiculous for one bolt but they are a bit special looking (bolt not dealer).

^^^^ What he said.

I bought two bolts from my local dealer without any problems a little while back.

Try Coopers online and see what they say - might be easier than driving/phoning round all the local dealers.

I bought 2 bolts from Coopers online a couple of months back. I can't remember the price but it wasn't too bad, :)

Thanks, will try that. There are only two bmw dealers in Latvia (maybe even one left), so not so easy. I don't care about a price of one bolt, as long as I don't have to buy 200 bolts :D
