[QUOTE="mike-s, post: 7307421, member: 169982"] The part which threads into the plastic is oversized. Personally, I'd first reuse what you have by pulling the studs, cleaning the holes and studs well with degreaser, and re-installing them fully seated using a thread locker (Loctite). Once you go oversize, that option is gone. Oversized ones seem more suited to when they've basically pulled through the plastic threads. Your's seem to be unscrewing, not pulling out. But, maybe not - you should be able to feel how tight they thread in. [/QUOTE]
