Guys,
The proper size Dzus Stud for the 907 is:
AJ5-60 Cad Oval Head Stud
You can order them direct from:
Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co.
Their website is:
http://www.aircraftspruce.com
They cost $1.79/ea, plus shipping. No minimum order required. Shipping is very reasonable in the USA. I paid $1.86 to have 10 studs shipped USPS first class. The studs arrived w/in a week. I have no idea what international shipping would cost, but Dzus components are small and relatively lightweight, so shipping couldn't be that much. Of course, you Euro guys have VAT tax, so factor that into your customs declaration, if it applies.
The folks at Aircraft Spruce are very helpful. They can help you select the right fastener for the AJ5-60 Cad Oval Head Stud. Their toll free number, (USA only, sorry FinPaso and Persempre!), is:
(877) 477-7823.
Good luck w/ your conversions.
Peace, Elton

Jon,
One of my 907ies has Dzus fasteners. (Guys, I bought it with the fasteners already on it, so I can't offer any help about how to do the coversion, sorry!) I brought it to the Desmo picnic a couple of years back. Did you get a chance to check it out? The bodywork fits tight, accurately positioned, and looks great. I highly recommend Dzus fasteners on the 907ie!
