Default Buy M10x1.25 eye bolts?

Hey all. I'm looking for M10x1.25 eye bolts to secure racing harness to the stock rear seat bolt location.

I searched and seen that bolts are M10x1.25 in size. For some reason I can not find these eye bolts anywhere.

Anyone have a clue? Or do i have the wrong size for the bolt to begin with?

I got mine from here:

Amazon has them too. Search G-Force eye bolt.

Looks like the link is for a 7/16th thread.

I'll look on Amazon again. I didn't see any m10x1.25

That's what I used to mount my harness to the bottom seat belt location. It screwed in with no problem and it is holding tight. The thread size confused me too but it worked.

Question: I may be able to get some custom made but I will have to order a minimum of 100.

Is there a good enough market to sell these if I ordered 100?

I am so sorry I've been having a hard time reading today. I thought you wrote "seat belt location" but you said "seat bolt location". You can forget what I said. I'm not sure if there's a difference for the seat belt location and the seat bolt.

I happen to have spares of both OEM bolts and the G-force 7/16 eye bolts. The OEM bolt has a measured thread OD of .430"...measured on the G-force eye bolts is 0.417." The G-force eye-bolts thread into the OEM hole and tigthen up fine, but there is definitely more play prior to tightening vs the OEM seat belt bolts.

there is some guy on here, cant remember his name, that was building a custom turbo and he was doing all his own welding and they were gorgeous. if i can remember or find who it was, you could shoot him a pm to see if he would be willing to do it if you shipped him some bolts

So you're telling me these should screw right in?

The ones i have are the actual Gforce ones, and they do fit. But per my measurements it seems that the OEM bolts are a slightly tighter fit. To put it in metric terms the oem bolts have a 0.33mm bigger overall thread diameter as I measure them.

It's cheap enough to buy 1 and try it out. If it works then get the rest. I think everyone is in agreement that the size is a little smaller but it holds tight.
