Clutch bolts - Saxperience

Well... I'm having a bit of a 'mare with the clutch in my VTS. I've lost 1 of the 6 pressure plate bolts and really struggling to find a replacement, I've been to Citroën & bought a brand new 1 BUT it's too short by 1/4" and is the only 1 they do apparently !

6mm cap head bolt, no idea on the thread details apart from it's not M6 or M8

Can't seem to find them anywhere else, does anyone have OR know where I can get?

Thanks for the help
Simon

Strange if its the only one they do.

Tried taking one from a saxo at a scrappy or something?

Surprisingly enough, I can only find "clutch-less" engine & box still fully fitted

VERY helpful... So now I need to know why the dealer supplied M7x1.00 @ 25mm instead of 30mm

Take one of the bolts to a bolt/stud factory search on the net for one close. They will have one in stock if you take it to them and show them for sure. I did it when I lost a bolt on my 125. To connect the carb back on there were four bolts, one just disappeared...

Most of the local fastener/fixing places and they all said "sorry" or actually laughed

M7 is a very rare and not that widly used thread.
I can get them from my supplier though they have a head hex head.
