sump guard screws and bolts

So my Freelander 1 (2002) doesn't have a sump guard (because the previous owner removed it) I now have one in my garage (woo) however I am lacking all the fixings for getting it back on, does anyone have any advice as to what bits I need (screw sizes, those dumb metal clips, nuts and bolts etc)

There are a variety of fixings required.
From memory the 6 main bolts are M10, the rear bolts are M6.
The 4 M10 side bolts are 25mm long, the M6 rear bolts are 20mm long.
I can't remember the front bolt dimensions though, but they're longer than the side bolts.

I modified mine so just the resin tray could be removed and not the outer alloy frame which was a pain every time you needed to do any work in that area.

I'd run a tap through the threads first, makes it easier to remove next time.

And apply liberal amounts of anti-seize to the bolts too.

My engine has a method of ensuring I never need to use any anti-seize compounds on anything in the engine bay

You have to remember than not all Freelanders leak oil GG.
My FL2 doesn't leak anything, well except when the PS pipe failed a few weeks ago, then everything was covered in PS fluid.

Thank you all for your replies, this forum is so helpful
