   Citroen
   
   Got a set about a week ago
   
   10 studs
   10 nuts
   10 washers
   Manifold gasket
   
   £22.34 including VAT
   
   Ring them up and they will order the parts, takes a few days.

   Yeah gasket is steel, was very surprised at how cheap the whole lot was!
   
   I tried a few parts companies but none seemed to do manifold bolts so Citroen was a last resort and was expecting double that to be fair.
