Silencer bobbin revisted

For the silencer mount, I'd originally used a renault exhaust bobbin but I found that the silencer tends to twist round due to vibrations from the engine (making the exit closer to the ground). To get round this, I've bought a rover bobbin which is much more solid. The mounting brackets have been modified this evening and given a coat of my favorite paint, POR15, ready for assembly tomorrow. Once thing I didn't realise is that the bobbin's threads are M10 fine and I don' have any suitable fine threaded nuts to use so these have been ordered this evening. Comparison between both mounts shown below.
