Hi, What size Rivnuts are you using in the pre-existing holes? My Sprinter has 8mm, 12mm and 16mm holes. Looking at the Rivnut sizes, M4, M5, M6, M8, non seem to fit the pre-existing hole sizes? M5 seems to be for 7mm hole, so it will fit an 8mm hole, but will it still grip? Thanks

The links to the rivetnut install tools isnt there Can you please and does the consumer grade pneumatic tool work with plus nuts too? Thanks

Hey there, we just updated the links in the description. Yes the pneumatic tool can be used with Plusnuts, but we have included a link for a longer mandrel which is necessary for use with Plusnuts, since the threads are longer. For that tool, the mandrel is simply a bolt, so that link works great.
