    I’m about to replace my rotors. What size bolt did you use for the holes to help free up the rotor?

    Nice! You’ll get more light on the road and further distance projection too without lighting up every street sign with glare.

    I believe it was M8x1.25. I’d suggest picking up the assorted metric bolt/nut kit at your local auto parts store. It will have the correct size, I got mine from Oriley. You can see the full write up here:

    Black thing is the rear vent. I don't think that you want to cut that off.

    Washed, clayed, cutting compound, polished and waxed this one square foot spot on my roof as a test. The dirt you see wouldn’t come off with a pressure washer or clay bar, so I brought out the big guns. Looks like tomorrow will be a day filled with detailing! My truck has literally never been waxed so this will be nice.

    Honestly....I don’t know. I've used the same 2 bolts for many years to remove drums and rotors. Never knew what size they were. 20 years I probably did.

    Sorry
