Hi
I need to fix a fairly heavy bronze lion's head to my brick garden wall (don't ask!). I've just got myself some of these 68mm M10 shield anchors

they're the right thing for the job, but the hex heads on the bolts are not very appealing and don't go with the bronze. So I'm looking for alternative ways of fixing the thing.
Ideally I would like to use the sleeve of the shield anchor, but put a brass bolt in it in place of the bolt supplied with it. This sort of thing would be great

Screwfix only supply them up to 50mm which isn't long enough for the sleeve - I would need 75mm. Anyone know where I could get any longer ones? I can't find anything on the internet.
Otherwise perhaps I could stick with the 50mm brass bolts from Screwfix and use these fixings instead

they suitable for the job? I've never used them before. If I do it's all going to get expensive - I'll have to buy a bag of 50 of them plus a "setting tool".
Or any other neat solutions?
