Hello

Two of my cam cover bolts have rounded so I am
Going to replace all 16.

I know they are 20mm m6

Would either of the ones below be ok or do I have to have the official ones from Peugeot?

Never had a problem with swampy personally, not with either bolts or brake lines.

Cheers for all the replies

Went for the black halfords ones in the end, seem to be fine.

Lined them up against the ones I removed from the engine and they look identical :)

£7 for 20 odd
Cheaper than Peugeot wanted :)

Selling the car so not the end of the world for me :)

I will tell the new owner that I resealed the covers and it may be worth changing the bolts at some point

Cheers for letting me know
