M12x40 originally, but you want ~25 mm extra for the wing stay mount.

Update: grade 8.8 is OK, as it's what it was on Sierra.

Hi and thanks for the help, could you also tell me if the mushroom insert is actually clamped in that position being the only way it is held in place, sorry if this is a stupid question.

You also need a secondary fixing to please mr iva. normally a hole drilled and tapped with a bolt or grub screw fitted through upright into mushroom.......once you have it positioned correctly! i.e offset towards the front!
