Hi,
Recent new member and recent new owner of a 1997 EL Fairmont wagon (yep, the family is growing again at the end of the year and we needed the space of a wagon!). Anyway, I picked up a cargo barrier off ebay to fit and have since found out that it came from an EF Fairmont where the owner had to drill their own holes to fit the barrier. On the EL the mount holes (one each side in the rear headlining and one each side just inboard of the rear wheelarch) come pre drilled and threaded from the factory. Woo hoo I thought - easy install! Wrong! The locators provided with the barrier are 10mm (i.e. metric) and won't go more than 1/2 a turn into the threaded holes. So, must be imperial - go and get some 3/8" ones and try them. Again, no luck. So my question is, does anyone know, or know where can find out, the details for what size locator or thread type will fit these existing mounting points? |
