Hi guys,

While removing my spark plug cover this evening, I managed to snap a bolt - I'm guessing the last owner/mechanic or whoever might have over-torqued it. Anyhow, the bolt I'm talking about is the lower bolt that holds the spark plug down and the cover on. (See pictures)

Does anyone know the part number for the snapped bolt? Or anyone in vic that has one of these I can run down and buy? (Western Suburbs)

Is it safe to run my car without the plug bolted down and the spark plug cover off?

Engine is a K20Z1

It's non-broken counterpart.

90013-PNC-010 BOLT A, PLUG HOLE COIL COVER

for the time being just use another 6mm bolt to secure it

and yes you can use the car without the cover on

Hey mate, haven't bought it yet. Have requested it, needs to be shipped from Japan or something.
Let me know if you find it and I'll get back to you once the dealer gets back to me ;)
