[daddydarko]

My brain isn't working and I can't remember the size of the body bolts. Anyone remember offhand?

Looking in my Spyder Service Manual....can you be more specific?

The bolts that hold the fairings together. It's the most common bolt used throughout the Spyder. It has a torx head.

Its a size T30 torx head with a M6 coarse thread size.

Hey where can I get extra torx bolts as well as the plastic panel fasteners? I have founf myself to be missing one of the bolts and those plastic plugs get loose after taking them in and out several times.

The plastic "rivets" are at your fiendly CanAm dealer for .96 each, the bolts are also available there, complete with thread lock already on them. Guess how I know.:gaah:

Dealer charged me $5 per bolt! There are a few place online that have them for $.50 or less though. Just look for the M6x20 bolts.

Oh, and the pins... $12 at the dealer!

I ordered 4 and they were @$5 a piece at my dealer also. They will be mailing to me once they get them from BRP.

Same here. Note that they are blackened stainless, though, with thread locker. Not worth the $5, but they should cost considerably more than an average screw. BTW, I couldn't find an equivalent, even online.

The plastic rivets are available from many bike vendors online, and in some auto parts stores. Be sure and measure, since they make a few different sizes. I forget what the Spyder ones are.
