Are honda rocker cover nuts interchangable?

Post by Bludge » Tue Jul 23, 2013 5:22 pm

I need some rocker cover nuts and i have been looking on ebay, found these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TEGIWA-ENGINE ... 2a0b6c205c in various colours and listed for various hondas, but not prelude.
They all look to be the same, so can anyone tell me if they will fit the lude?

And also if they are worth getting, as you hear horror stories about ebay stuff.

haha, i didnt even notice that!!

All the other listings for the same nuts are £8!

Good job you pointed that out, or i might have clicked buy it now without realising!!

EDIT* All the listings for the red nuts are at £1000, that must be a scam so people click without looking after seeing all the other listings for £8.

I heard that very high prices on eBay were not a scam but products out of stock. If the seller deletes the ad, he has to pay to put it up later. Changing prices is not charged by eBay.

Well, that's what I've been told.

I think they are all the same, m6 standard thread, try searching for m6 dome nuts and you might find something cheaper.

I've always wondered about the high price listings by many reputable companies, that does explain it.

And Bludge, those fit yes, I have a black set from Tegiwa. :wink:
