Probably 1/4 or 5/16 UNF

3/16 is 4.7625mm

Probably 10-32 & 8-32 UNF, but could be BA equivalent depending on the application.

Thanks. I have the interior of one to rebuild but the place that took it apart haven't sent me most of the fittings.

Hello Keith,

Jaguar used a lot of 2 BA for interior fitting and such. BA spanners required, they are slightly different size to standard imperial A/F spanners.
Another odd ball are the bolts which attach the cylinders on the disc brakes, 1/4" UNF bolts with a 3/8" head rather than 7/!6".

Most likely 2BA and 4BA if they are a little "off" from M5 / M4
