Query for Oz members, wide M6 nylocs

I've been to 4 bolt retail joints and noone can supply me with M6 nylocs to match the original Lav cad plated ones (as used to hold mufflers onto rubber silent blocks). I can get narrow in stainless or plated, but really want the wider fit (not for rivet counting!!).

I even one on a cheap kid's bicycle, but not in any fastener retailers here in Melbourne. Any clues?
 
Just gone through this conundrum in fact.  They're called DIN982, also known as "P TYPE" in Oz.  I bought a few hundred of each size  used on Lavs recently, hopefully see me out! :)  If you only want a few I'll send you some, but they're cheap enough, ie M6's were around $10/100.

The nylon is blue, clear/natural is also available, take your pick but no yellow.  The later bikes (~80 onwards) started to have blue nylon inserts anyhow, in case your inner rivet is ascending. :D
 
PS: There's even a branch in Melb.

Call first, they had to order some of mine in.

Snorker! You're a legend, Steve. I knew they had to be got from some dang place. Such a common part, seemed bizarre that they were 'unavailable' (not in 'unobtanium; ;-). If I don't have any luck I might fling you some dough if you can spare 20 of the M6s?
