djcheung Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hi all,Just trying to find some of the fixing pins between the midrange box and the woofer box on the M5.Has anybody come across these?I need to find some to replace the missing ones.I think it is next to impossible to find but hopefully can get something close aand then can cut/file down to size.One thing that I have found on the internet is 'Shoulder Screws'.Best regards,David.

JKent Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the M5 or the exact purpose of those pins, but could you use something like this?https://www.whitbypandemonium.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=50&zenid=km35do1c8u2ifvpkpe6d9frgj1or ebay item # 190649861909 or 200724058435I don't know the size of the studs but I'm guessing you could use them with short pieces of threaded rod.Probably all metric though. The US is the only place still using the antiquated English system of measurement (well maybe not. According to the interweb Burma and Liberia are still in the 19th century too).Might be cool to have punk/goth speakers There are also motorcycle windscreen fairing fasteners like thishttp://jdacustom.com/store/Cone-Windscreen-Fairing-Screws-6-Pack.htmlKent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcheung Posted December 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Hi Kent,I have a friend who works in Cambridge university and has access to a 3D printer.I have given him the locator pin to transfer the dimensions to a CAD program. Hopefully he can 'print' me a few replica parts.They don't need to be very strong so the plastic material should work.Will let you know how it goes.Best regards,David.
