They are screws actually. Not bolts or studs. Studs have nuts fitted to them, and bolts have a plain shank above the thread whereas Omegas have a fully threaded hexagonal headed,taper seated screw :y

I'm getting a bargain today, two downpipes with cats and 02 sensors for £30, then it's straight off to EMR! Couple that with my free detachable towbar and all my overtime. Woo! :P
