Plastic screw nuts for square holes?

[Agile]

On my new old Peugeot 206 the rear wiper motor screws are missing for some reason.

These are the little cream plastic "nuts" which push into square holes about 8 mm across to take a self tapping screw.

What are these called and anywhere to easily buy them?

Or any good bodge suggestions?

Try a Google for screw grommet.
This sort of thing.

Thanks for that.

Before I buy them its possible/probable that I have usable ones on my resting 106 that I can salvage.

I really cannot imagine why anyone would remove them and leave them off! Unless they were salvaging them!

nut bolt and large penny/repair type washers if you can access the panel behind.

Scratching the memory cell....
Does the 106 have door pockets that have screws along the bottom?
The grommets will be there if it has ......or they won't be if it hasn't

Good job you kept the 106 .............

I have one kept for spares and have another which I will probably scrap now that I am so keen on the 206 I have just bought!

Still have a potentially usable 106 left when I have fitted a new CVJ.

If you get round to doing the CV or driveshaft Tony, be aware there are three different joints available, and the subtle difference is the length of the shaft that pushes through the hub, with the drive shaft nut on.
Caught me out twice, that one - no big deal, just wasted time.

I think that I have got the correct one.

But I am aware of the potential problems which helps!

Thanks

Cage nuts if you want something a little more durable.
