What size screw? Rear air strut

Hi all, Google isn't being my friend on trying to track down the correct screw/bolt size that holds the lower spigot on a rear air strut in place on the lower wishbone - I'm sure it's a 50p drive to my local fasteners supplier to get a pair, I just need to know the size and type. The originals have long ago snapped and fallen out, part of why I'm changing the bags. 2004 4.4p Vogue

Cheers, R.

What this little M7 x25mm?

That's the one!! If only I'd thought to google in a different language.....

I'm going to assume it's a large penny/repair sized washer. I'll try to get a pair in Stainless Steel from a local merchant.

Cheers!

The site is very handy to have bookmarked it gives the part numbers for ref. forget the language
I goggle in English .

As for the size of the washer I cant remember but it just needs to be bigger than the hole the screw goes through.
Dont overtighten it remember its only plastic (IIRC) 5lb/ft (7nm to you metric lads) is what my manual says. but just snug tight would do me its not like it really does much.

Island 4x4 have them in stock individually, not in packs of five. Else it would have been £20+ for two screws!!

It's a screw with a large flange washer on it already, and yes, absolutely not for over-tightening as it's only going into plastic.
