Mantec 'Plastic Jobby' Raised Air Intake fitting... help!
Hi all,

I have just been looking at fitting my Mantec "snorkel" to my 110 today, and looked at the fitting guide on this site, however there are two Rivnuts/Threaded Inserts that need to be fitted above the hole on the wing for the bottom of the moulding to be attached to. As helpful as the fitting guide is, it makes no reference on what you need to fit these Rivnuts. I don't own a Rivnut setting tool, and they appear very expensive, so do I actually need one to do this job, or can I get away with using something else?

Cheers! Pete
