Towbar captive nuts......

I recently bought a good s/h towbar kit for my P406 hdi estate from a scrap yard, however the four captive nuts that held it to the boot floor rails were past it. I thought these items would be easily obtained from a main stealer. Apparently it turns out that the captive nuts are only available when you buy a complete towbar kit :frown: .

Any help / advice would be much appreciated, upon where I could obtain these captive nuts, at a push I could get away with just two.

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking at there (any chance of a pic?), where are these captive nuts and what do they look like? Are they part of the car or part of the tow bar? (stupid questions I know but I've never seen one for a 406 and if I went out to buy one I'm not allowed to go to Pug for it, it would have to be tailer made for my car because of some rediculous type appoval law they have here).
