Plastic lugs / captive nuts for instrument housing

[DWH]

Does anyone know where I can get 8 of the plastic screw fixings to fix the wood facia to the instrument and ventilation/heating panels ?

A PO had replaced the originals (which he thankfully kept) with painted ones which were stuck on with glue.

They would look similar to these which I must have taken from a donor for a kit car that I once built.



Thanks

cannot recall what size hole is in the dash (nor can force myself to go and unlock the spares shed anf hunt for a spare dash panel, if it's an 8mm hole then consider these.

Possibly a closer match

Or these but they don't mention size- I'd guess these would also be available from Rimmer Bros

Thanks Andy

I couldn't find the right search terms on ebay before.

The hole is 7mm square and so I went for these, which you had included.

Just for other peoples' information, the ones that I bought are fractionally too small. I could have used a bit of insulating tape to reduce the size of the hole and so the captive nuts would be sufficiently firm in the hole for them to work.

I eventually found some which are a perfect fit from www.carspares.co.uk, their part number VANFIX72. They have an Ebay store:
