Would using regular bolts instead of OEM-type bolts be ok?  My local dealer was out so I went to a hardware store and bought allen-head bolts that fit correctly.  There's no shoulder on the bolt, but 3 months have passed and there are no leaks.  Can anyone think of long-term reasons not to use them?

Gotta love Tinyurl.com for shrinking long URLs down to size...

I actually avoid clicking tinyurl links, because I don't like not knowing where I'm going before I click the link.   

If you don't want to show the actual url in the message body, the 'url' tag can handle that.  Just do this when you're typing your post:

'url=www.MyGoodnessThisSureIsALongURL.com/AndWeStillHaveMoreToGo.htm' Ah Much Shorter '/url'

Just replace the single quotes with brackets.

Here's a real example:

Torque Wrench

And if you mouse over the link, the real url shows up in the info bar at the bottom of the browser window.

I recommend eeee bay if you are house bound in western nations or any local audio parts store if not house bound. Buy 3 and buy the nuts. Asia Ali baba... price, one coffee.
