So the thread confirmed 3/4" UNF.
There is a grove at shoulder end 0.640" diameter and 0.193" wide.
Hope this helps.

(Doing the door seals ATM. Interesting job in lock-down. Ended up using ALL aluminum pop rivets and my air rivet gun.)
Many thanks Chris,
I was hoping it wasn't some bastard thread size, at least I should be able to buy HT bolts.
I have someone locally sourcing sample door seal material but I haven't heard from them yet.
Out of interest where did you get yours ? Is it a good match to the original ?
