8mm harness eyes?

Hi All

I'm looking for harness eyes with an 8mm thread but can't seem to find any off the shelf.

Anybody know of any?

Will these do

Not sure if the eye will be big enough on anything M8

They look tiny!

Here's what I'm trying to achieve - seat mounting bolt and eye in one -

Yep thought the eye might be an issue on M8 bolt. Might have to turn and re-thread something originally larger.

Yeah - that's what I thought.

Better get some biggish ones for machining down!

Well on the standard Elise, the seatbelt attaches to the seat and the seat is held by 8mm bolts.

And I've just checked the harness and it's a bolt in type (8mm!) so I won't be using eyes anyway!
