    Completed: Nuts for OEM M3 strut bar

    Hey all,

    I just purchased a used M3 strut bar and realized that you need a special collared nut (actually, six of them) to install the bar. Assuming that these are not locking nuts, I was wondering if anyone has an extra set they'd be willing to part with at a reasonable price?

    Thanks,
    Ayan

    Hopefully someone has some for you, they are not cheap from the dealer. I bought a used bar and the seller didn't give me the bolts either.

    They aren't locking. I may have some in my miscellaneous parts. I found a bag of nuts and caps the other day. Will check when I get home.

    Yes, upon closer examination of the pics they see to have blue loctite inside. Please let me know if you find them!! Thanks for checking.

    Hi 330i ZHP, actually they are not so easy to buy at the dealer. They want $16.50 EACH and initially said that they came in packs of ten from Germany, and I would have to buy all ten! Now they are relenting on that, but it's still $165 plus 13% tax to buy not a bar, but just the f#%^ing nuts!
