Hello there i bought a KS for my dad's maxima. When it finally arrived and i was getting ready to put it on i found that i lost the bolt b/c i had already taken the old KS out. Does anyone know what size it is and where to get it? im gussing autozoe or homedepot one of them should have it. Also does it have to be for a certain material or just any bolt... thank you very much for the replys

Hmm all I can tell you is that the head is a 10 mm. about length. I dunno a few inches, but Id go see Nissan if they got a spare lying around

 

12mm

Here's a writeup http://www.skippynet.com/maxima/knocksensor.htm

 

It's going to be a fine thread bolt as well. Most hardware stores dont carry metric, fine thread bolts. Go to a dedicated fastener supply shop.

 

Junkyard

 

Hardware stores are tough on metric. NAPA usually has decent selections you might try. (Dorman metric bolt/nut kits from Autozone are essential to any garage)

Junkyard is your best bet and it's a 12mm as stated before not a 10mm, you could always get raped by the stealership but for it lol

 

Holy 7 year-old-thread-bump batman!

 

Unholy septennial necrobumpage!

 

 

Epic fail anyway. The HEX size is 12mm and unimportant. The thread diameter and pitch is whats important.

I found ACE hardware to be Superior to even your local auto parts stores...They have all kinds of metric even Stainless steel in hex, allen, torx, etc.....awesome selection!
