Roof Fixing Points

I have an RRS2007 and am about to fix roof bars. 2 of the plastic screws had to be drilled out as they had broken in the fixing and the threads now need to be rethreaded. 1. Does anyone know what size the holes are? Also a good rethreading tool that will allow me to rethread them? if you can help on either I would be grateful.
regards

Out of interest what roof bars are you fitting? I have just fitted these,

As you can see in the pic the fitting is not very square to say the least. But still pleased over all.

If the threads are badly damage you can actualy unscrew the boss and replace it completely, Part No. AYR500061 about £3.50 each.
