Honda D16Y7/D16Y8 Starter Mounting Bolt 31202-P2C-004

Honda D16Y7/D16Y8 Starter Mounting Bolt - Genuine OEM (31202-P2C-004)

Throwing a starter on your EK Civic or Del Sol and not sure which bolt you actually need? Skip the guessing game. This is the genuine Honda starter mounting bolt, part 31202-P2C-004, sized exactly right for the D16Y7 and D16Y8, so you don't have to stand at the hardware store holding bolts up to the light trying to match the length and shoulder. It's the correct one, it bolts your starter on the way it's supposed to go, and you're done.

Why The Right Bolt Matters Here

Here's the deal, because this isn't just any bolt. Your starter mounts with a shouldered bolt, and that shoulder actually helps locate the starter in the right spot so it lines up with your flywheel. Grab a random bolt that's the wrong length or doesn't have the right shoulder, and your starter can sit slightly off, which messes with how the gear engages and can chew things up over time. Too long and it bottoms out, too short and you don't get enough thread to hold it. This one takes all of that off the table, it's the factory bolt, so it's the right length, the right shoulder, and the right fit.

You'll Want Two Of These

Quick heads-up: each starter mounts with two bolts, and these are sold individually. So if you're doing a starter and want fresh hardware on both holes, order two. It's cheap insurance to put new bolts in while you've got the starter out anyway, instead of reusing crusty old ones that have been baking back there for years.

Genuine Honda, Correct Fit

This is the real Honda piece, made for the D16Y engine, so it threads in clean and torques down right instead of a substitute you're hoping works. It's the same bolt Honda used from the factory, no guessing on dimensions, no almost-right hardware-store bolt.
