Valve Cover Bolts!
I have a dilemma here. I snapped one of my valve cover bolts, no worries i got it out but i want to replace all of them just to be safe since they have been out numerous of times. So yesterday i called the mazda dealership(i get trade cost since a work for another dealership GM) to order them says there 2.74$ a piece. So i figure okay order them up i guess thats a reasonable price for chrome bolts. Go pick them up today there ******* shitty bolts i could buy at the hardware store for 10cents each...called him back i guess they changed up the part number or discontinued the chrome ones and i cant get them anymore :(. Soo if anyone has a set of 11 BRAND NEW valve cover bolts i would like to purchase them. If not someone who has one of them il give u a couple bucks + the shipping for one, seems kind of dumb but i cant even buy one chrome one! Thanks. Mike
