Hi folks. Can anyone point me in the direction of a UK supplier of body panel bolts for my new Sills (8mm head). Thank you

This is the part number and any BMW dealer should have them.....possibly packs of 10 !!!!

Or try typing the number into google or ebay and there should be some adverts for them

I replaced my wheel arch liner screws with stainless self tapping screws 4.8 x 16mm used with stainless washers to increase the head size.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-5mm-4-...var=632025528956&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Stainless washers M4 x 15mm https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M4-M5-M6...var=622192733929&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
These self tappers should be ok for the cover sills and will remain rust free unlike the standard ones. You will want a supply of the plastic sill plate trim clips, you will break some getting the trim off.
