You can usually find wellnuts in a good hardware store.

Hi All, I need some help with my passenger mirror. I bought it four or five years ago from Hall Pantera. I should have taken apart my driver's mirror & looked how the factory installed it, & done it that way, but NO I followed Hall's install procedure & drilled two 3/16 holes in my door sills to install #0-1032 Wellnuts in them & then screw the mirror in. That lasted for about four months. The mirror started to wable, so I thightend the two phillips screws & stripped the wellnuts. I called & talked to Bev & asked for two more Wellnuts, and she said I would have to order another mirror. All I wanted was just the Wellnuts.
I had enough of the wable in the mirror, so I took it apart. There are two parts to this Wellnut, the rubber gromet & a brass smooth nut that fits into the gromet & the screw goes thru the gromet & screws it self into the brass smooth nut. The question is; Is that brass nut pressed in top or middle or bottom of the rubber gromet ?
Can I just buy two #0-1032 Wellnuts some where ? I guess I have to use those Wellnut because of the 3/16 holes in the door. It would have been much easier to just drill some small holes & use two metal screws to attach the mirror just like the factory did. But I am screwed. Sorry for the rant.
