If its the bolts your talking about there 10mm. Or 12mm.
If you are re-building your system, use HOLTS FIRE GUM. The one in the tube. Get it from Halfords. Its excellent stuff.

Oh right. You may have to order them in because when i wanted some, they never had any.
You could get away with using the old ones. Scrape out the old putty and use loads of Fire Gum and it won't blow at all.

best 1s to get are from citroen. I bought a lipped clamp from autofactors and it kept blowing. Got a clamp from citroen which has only 1 bolt to do up and it holds it much tigher as the lip is smaller. they are about £5 from citroenand they keep them in stock normally. Dont use a non genuine 1 they are crap.
But the best thing to do also is fill the lipp with exhaust paste (fire gum) then put it on so it seals it aswell at the same time.
