A/c condenser screw

Just picked up an r50 and it is missing the screw or bolt that holds the top hose onto the condenser. Anyone know what the size and type of the bolt is? Thanks

Well I finally remembered I have an 05 r53 sitting there so I looked at the fitting on the condenser and it is a hex head bolt. So that is a start. Probably just go to Lowe’s and raid the metric bolt bin and find something that fits.

Likely your best bet especially regarding cost. Its an M8x30mm bolt, assuming 1.25 pitch threads. Nothing special, If you have a tap and die set could easily confirm thread pitch. Best of luck in your adventure!
