              M5 = 8mm head. M6 = 10mm head. M8 = 12mm or 13mm head.

                  What PeaveyBassist said about bolt sizing is correct- they measure the diameter of the bolt, not the head size.

                  If it is #11, then it's just a normal 5mm nylock lock nut.

                      Not always. 36 31 2 345 496 is an M8 bolt with a 10mm head.

                      There are no hard and fast rules with BMW fasteners... Except that whatever you're looking for isn't in stock at the dealership.

                          #9 I can't help, #11 I just go to Napa and hit the bulk bins and the "select-o-thread" which lets you spin on a nut or screw in a bolt, and it will tell you the right size.
