Is this strong enough? The thread pitch is different, and I think the 8mm thread diameter would already be bigger than the tap diameter for the 6mm Helicoil. If there's really enough material here for the M6 x 1 Helicoils to grab then this is a great solution. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
