Looking for some (4) captive nuts that go on the transmission hump. Please let me know who sells these in the US. Thanks,

Thanks I saw those but the type I'm referring to are the kind that go into the square hole but they have a little lip on them to hold from going through.

Are they like these? McMaster-Carr calls them steel snap nuts.

If this is them then just pick your thread size and sheet metal thickness. Your tub floor is about .050" (18 Ga.)

My guess is that you need 5/16-18 tpi. #90680A145
