Hello All,

While I was trying to replace the front stock fender with flat fenders from EAG, I noticed one of the rear bolts (bottom one) was missing, part of the bolt was inside the nutsert. When I tried removing with an easyout it didn't come (was quite tights) so I had to drill it out, but in doing so I ruined the threads on the nutsert. Can I completely drill it and put a new nutsert (size?) I have attached pictures of the damaged nutsert.

I bought a nutsert tool just to install savvy rocker guards and one of the nutsert sizes it came with was the right threads. I didn't break any bolts but I spun 3 of them so I replaced them.

I don't recall what they were, but it wasn't anything weird. 5mm course thread maybe?

Edit: I completely mistook what bolt and nutsert you were referring to. The right answer is in the next post.
