Thanks Steve,
I looked at Agena site. The shipping cost of one nut to AU is over $40. But since it gives me the specifications I will follow your suggesgtions and start with Bunnings and the ebay site you recommended.
Of course if someone has them lying around .....that would be my 1st choice.
Many thanks Steve, appreciate your help.. Cheers
