Can anyone tell  me what type of screws - self tappers or metal threads hold the accelerator bracket to the body in the footwell

 

and send me a photo of one of the 3 screws or metal threads

 

The paint and panel guys were a bit over keen filling holes unfortunately

 

Fortunately though it is easy to see where it was

I can’t remember what gauge.

Use the largest philps head self tapping screws that will comfortably fit through the holes in the pedal mounting bracket.

They appear same size as the arm rest screws

Actually not a huge gauge at all really,I was thinking of the pedal mounting screws which are quite a large gauge.

They are the accelerator pedal mounting bracket screws above Paul..

If they're the same as the arm rest screws then I think that's either 10 or 12 guage from memory.
