yes, i have searched, and no i have not found what i needed..

i bought a junky shell and need to know the front fender sizes for an s13..

size as in everything i need to walk into autozone and get some (alot) and i cant just remove one then take it in like everyone says because well the prev owner was a tard and ziptied it.. so i get a nice fender on door grind opening it because the fender goes wherever it wants.. i keep seeing 10mm.. is it 10mm everywhere? I need the dimensions for the ones holding fender secure in the engine bay, the ones you access through opening the door on the sides right there and the ones that go from underneath like where the fender liner is..
Thanks- much help appreciated.. really tired of these stupid fenders..

Go to a local auto salvage yard and pull the bolts you need.

should be m10, probably around 12mm length. Practically everything in the engine bay itself is attached with m10 bolts

All Japanese vehicles use the same bolts, i.e. 8mm, 10mm, 12mm. These are the most commonly used ones to fasten the simplest of things on the vehicle. Of course length will vary, but you can acquire the bolts that you need very easily.

NO!
the bolts for the fenders are M6 1.0. the head of the bolts are 10MM ie use a 10MM socket.

M6 1.0 bolts are used throughout the whole chassis, for body panels, mounting a multitude of crap to the chassis etc.

This sounds way more right to me.. just picked up my lm7 for v8 swap.. going to take a break and go see if the bolts will fit

Do yourself a favor and order up a 100 pack of socket head M6x1.0 x25mm. You will use them EVERYWHERE including your LS swap. Coil packs, fuel rails, etc etc.
