Part reference ?? "Captive nut" on the floor (Def
Hello Very Happy

I have these part to replace onto the floor-plate on my Defender 90 (2015) :



But I can't obtain them from my dealer. They find the reference on Microcat and provide me with the part ref. LAL6014011 ... which is not the correct one !! (not the same shape nor the same thread)

So, I think it would be better if could give them the correct reference by myslef Laughing

Would someone know which part this actually is ?

Thanks in advance !
Fabien

PS. some other pictures, just in case :

I think it is a Spire nut. Available in many sizes.

Very easily available, you'll find loads all over eBay for self tappers or machine screws, just do a search for "spire clip" or "clip nut".
No point in paying silly dealer prices for parts like that.

Your local fastener company or engineering supplies will only be too happy to supply those [speed nuts] in quantity and for peanuts compared with LR supplies places. Steve.

Well, yes, you're right. But, to be honest, I'm going to my dealer tomorrow and found it easier to order the part today by phone and have it tomorrow when I arrive (they asked me for the reference Laughing )

Oh, you mean that this is the new part ... So, if I understand well, the screw itself has changed itself ?!

Because the original screw is far too large (it's a self-taper too, diameter 6mm)
