Default Replacement bolts - OEM Air intake

Morning folks. When I bought my car recently, it already had a K&N induction kit installed, but I also got the original OEM intake/resonator/airbox and now I'd like to fit it. Unfortunately, I'm missing two bolts, the two that secure the air scoop/intake above the front bumper. Looking around I can see they're "T3" bolts but I can't find any reference to what size they are.

Can anyone tell me what they are?

I'd have a word with MattyB from MB developments on here. They'd probably have some in stock especially if your in the West Midlands too!

If not those exact ones, the 'more like this' will likely be right

Thanks for the replies so far, still not having much luck. I've stolen this image from someone else asking the same question (but with no answer):

With the part number, just called my local Subaru garage (Carstins in Ballsall Common) and they've order me a couple for the whopping price of £0.81+vat each Just hope Subaru UK has them in stock.

Thanks for your help chaps

Hey Corno. I'm in Coventry, though I have family in Evesham, so I'm down there sometimes. All mods meet? Don't know it, any details?

I'm moving back to stock for a few reasons. I've read around filters/induction and many people say that stock airbox setup is very good with a performance panel filter, and that an induction kit really only enhances the sound from your engine bay. So I'm looking to calm down the noise a bit, make my car a little less obvious.

Second, insurance. I'm an honest person, so I don't really want to have to declare the induction kit to my insurance and bump my premium.

Third, I'd like to keep my car semi-stock and if the factory airbox is more than adequate, I'm happy to put it back on. I'm ditching a noisy dump valve when I get the chance as well. Nothing wrong with them if that's your thing, it's just not mine
