Troubleshooting
Nut does not fit into the hole.
Verify the hole size is 8.2mm. If the hole is smaller, the nut will not fit. If the hole is larger, the nut may not secure properly.
Nut feels loose after installation.
Confirm the hole size is correct and that the nut is fully seated. Check if the trim panel or the receiving grommet is damaged.
