15mm Plastic domed nut covers

Hi all,
I hope the winter tinkering is going well!

I am trying to buy some nut and bolt covers for the outside of my car. I can find 19mm (M12) and 17mm (M10) but not 15mm

Am I going crazy?

Has anyone got small numbers of cover they want to sell?

Cheers.

Biz

I have been looking for 16mm ones.

I fitted 17mm on mine for IVA but was not allowed them (i stuck them on too)

I think my dad found some on the internet, but we are to order them as we have had other stuff to sort out (if you see my other post)

If you're looking for the plastic ones that look like a nut with a dome one the top, they were a fail point under the sva because the flats were not radiused, the round rubber ones from tiffosi are perfect
nut and thread covers

I passed with the plastic ones described above.

In my case when the nut was too small I filled the inside of the rubber cover with silkflex and attached it that way. Seemed to do the job. In most cases I used button head hex fittings which didn't seem to attract unwanted attention.
