My left hand mirror snapped off and I need to get a bolt extractor kit. What size bolt is that? Is it an M8?

Thanks for any shared knowledge!

I believe it should be an M8 x 1.25mm thread. This is the size of Time Sert kit I bought to fix my LX150 mirror stem years ago.

One side is likely left-handed thread. I think this is actually the right side, in case of bumping the mirror this orientation of thread results in loosening, instead of stripping, the threads.
