Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

It is M16 x 1mm thread.

All Series 1 Xm used that 23mm size strut. The later 25mm strut, 18mm thread iirc, was introduced on the heavier Series 2 Xm, starting with the 2.5Td.
With appropriate, matching, strut tops the struts are interchangeable as the actual piston size didn't alter.
