Body Front End Description: Fasteners
NOTE:
Refer to Fastener Notice
in Cautions and Notices.
Many aluminum components are used on current models. Aluminum in contact with steel may corrode rapidly if it is not protected by special finishes or isolators.
The fasteners used have a special finish which provides adequate protection from corrosion. These special fasteners differ in color in order to easily identify them from the standard metric fasteners, which are medium blue in color.
When replacing fasteners, avoid substituting otherwise similar fasteners in the same location.
