I am looking to get a rivnut tool, just wondering if the cheap ones are any good or whether it is worth spending the extra, what does everyone else use?

I bought this one £105 which is supposed to be the best, but I'm not convinced it is, but I think it's getting the correct size drill that really matters, the hole needs to be tight or it tends to cock off to one side.

Yup and make sure the hole is round... most drill bits don't cut a round hole

It's only those cockermainy drills that you made me buy at Goodwood that drill triangle holes

Just thought I would tidy this one up, thanks for all the replies.

I ordered the Bralo T-105, seems to work well.

You will love to hate it soon enough :D

Loving it right now, upper and lower fire wall were riveted/fixed permanently in place, now they will be removable.
