I've bought numerous assortments of fasteners from the Bolt Depot - http://www.boltdepot.com/ - they offer both Metric and SAE fasteners and assortments - I think I have 6 of the plastic trays filled with metric fastners - with 2 SAE assorments. The assortmrnts are usually around $30-$35 and have saved me a lot of trips to the hardware store -

Have been very happy with their products -

Some of the hardware on the Ferrari is 'specialized' - I've been cutting-over to Stainless Steel as much as possible to cut-down on rust/corrosion where I find it. I have found the following sites to be quite good in sourcing Automotive hardware for my 308:

http://www.fastener-express.com/

http://www.belmetric.com/

http://www.winzerusa.com/?oout=x604fr

Some of the trim hardware is difficult to source, but Google is your friend. Lowes/Home Depot is ONLY useful if you have one of the SuperStores handy, and the idiots behind the counter bother to restock and re-sort the cabinets' inventory now and then.....

After half of a lifetime owning and working on English Sportscars, initially
because I could buy clapped out MGs, TRs etc cheap and fix them up, I realized
my dream and own an 81 308 GTSi. Although I own lots of metric tools, I have
very little in the way of metric hardware, nuts & bolts etc. Does anyone
know where I can get an assortment of these, preferably in a pull-out drawer
cabinet? Thanks.

Regards,
George
