[quote="ReggiePerrin"]Something like DYH 000140 - Nut Blind Anchor which fits an 8mm hole I think??? If not it may be a starting point for a dealer enquiry...


Reckon that's the one, many thanks @ReggiePerrin Thumbs Up

Will give them a go. Two of from Rimmer Bro's for £5.39

To be fair you can get them for about 90p each - postage is usually around £8 though


Might be worth asking Duckworth's - they never charged me delivery on anything I ever bought from them (quite a number of things too) so even if they charge full price of about 90p each, they may just bung them in an envelope and post for free.

Even if they charged for a stamp it is still only <= £3.00 for the pair.

Collection from a local LR dealer may be a cheaper way of doing it too.

Paddock = £7.70 inc VAT per pair delivered

Craddock - by no tracking post = £6.52 / pair delivered inc VAT

Britcar - £11.39 ????

So, according to Britcar, the correct part is actually LR002142

In the end I used the expanding rubber nuts things and they worked fine. Jules

I know this is going away from the OP's topic but I do find the postage some firms charge for small things very irritating.

£8 to £10 postage for a tiny bit of plastic just makes me not buy it.

At the other end of the scale is this which I bought for £1.35 inc P&P - and it arrived within 48 hrs.
