Z3 Wind Deflector fixing brackets

[David Brooks]

Knew I'd seen something like that. Good thinking.

Fitted Wind Deflector but not Entirely happy with the end result, ordered some Allen bolts and hopefully I will have enough thread to make them work. Hopefully post updated pics When they arrive.
Cheers.

Jose, I used M8 Fully Threaded Allen Bolts 80mm Long, M8 Nuts and my neighbour made the cone shaped items. You should be able to use m8 washers, possibly around 40mm to do the same job. The washers need to fit inside the Turret and expand the bracket. You will need to pull the Allen bolt up as you are tightening it so it can grip against the washer. Hope you can follow. I will send you a few links, if you have an engineering Shop/business nearby may be they could help with the materials.
