LG TV - What bolts

Options
Hi,

I've just receive bought LG 42LD450 TV from Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003H1048C/ref=oss_product)

but the 8 bolts to affix to the stand are missing. The manual states that the bolts are m4x20.

When I search for this type I get loads of different versions so don't know what one (for example, http://oscommerce.tibolts.co.uk/index.php?cPath=21_36&osCsid=3db2605b7bad568be5a5615733a70de6)

I've contacted Amazon and they'll refund or replace but that'll be another day off work to arrange for delivery. LG have supplied me with their supplier list, but the bolt is not listed as a part for this TV for some reason.

Can anyone advise the specific bolt I will required and where I should purchase (URL would be good).

Thanks a lot.

    Are you really, really, sure they aren't carefully hidden in some of the packaging, such as in some crevice of the white expanded polystyrene? It's ever so easy to miss stuff like that, I've found, after years of unpacking Stuff...
  • yip. checked everything with a fine tooth comb.
  • These, or these will do.

    When you get them screw them in hand tight[ish] and make sure they are not too long. When you are satisfied the length is ok tighten them normally. If they don't suit the job, example, you need a countersunk version come back here and ask.

    I just got one last thurs. (richer sounds) and four of the bolts were already installed in the base of the stand -I overlooked the remaining 4 bolts but did finally find them in the box

    They are flat headed pan head type but countersunk should do -watch out for a big grub head as may be too big for the base 4 which go straight up from under the stand and are v.near to the support surface
  • thanks all. i ordered the 4x 20mm from screwfix and they worked fine.
