As a sugestion ---------------   If you know any one in the automotive trade/machine shop, you could try "timeserts"  made by wurth, same kinda idea but uses a solid sleeve/insert instead of a spring type of thing??    I am not knocking helicoils for one minute, but we use to use timeserts especially when fitting high stress components to soft/alloy casings,  Just a thought,

caesar:
Thanks for all the replies, guys. I found a small local shop in Glasgow which literally stocks everything from a needle to an anchor! They had what I needed and now I'm off and running again.

Range Rover Blues:
I used to work in Plastics a few years back and most tools were ali, heated and cooled to about 240 degrees.  The best toolmakers fitted helicoils to all the mountings (sometimes at my request) and they are a damn good idea, not come across the timeserts but a similar principle by the sounds.  I like helicoils because they only go one way, the fitting causes them to contract slightly so once fitted they won't creep out when you unbolt things.  Good kit.

Wizard, how about some prices for a basic kit then mate?
