M6 U Nuts

I'm desperate for a couple of M6 U-Nuts. Don't suppose anyone has a couple spare do they?

This type of thing;

They don't appear to be speed nuts, spire nuts or trim clips. (According to my searching)

The ones I'm after have a threaded lug. Are these called lug nuts?

I know modern scooters use them for the bodywork so maybe a scootershop can even help you.

Hi Phil
Think i have 2 or 3 5mm ones that came with my westfield rear lights but the lug is slightly crimped to stop the bolt coming undone.
Anygood???
Can get a pic if need be
