Peg feelers, or "hero blobs" as we call them over here . . I've never given
mine more that the faintest touch (call me a coward, blame British weather,
etc.), but if I did knock one off I would have thought that any number of
similar items from the scrapyard would have the same thread (probably M6),
or as stated above, a plain and very cheap bolt, perhaps with a locknut and
the head chamfered so it's less likely to dig in.  $13 . . why that's
almost 10 of our finest British Pounds!
