I buy them in bulk from a fasteners supplier. As Yeti says, they are used in the building game

The DZUS conversion is, as Rockhopper says, a lot of hassle, and in truth, after some practice not that big a time saving. The problem is that the nose still has to come off first to remove the sides.
I'd fit new well nuts, use stainless fasteners and assemble with plenty of copa-slip.

I dont suppose you could tell me how long the well nuts are are as mine are so bunched up its tricky to tell.

Do you fit new well nuts as a matter of course each time you re-fit a fairing ?
