Where to find springy nuts?

Where to find springy nuts?
These spring loaded nuts are used all over our cars for fastening body panels and valences. Many of mine are missing or hopelessly corroded. Does anyone know a source for them? The Jaguar P/N? I have hunted the online parts catalogs, visited the dealer, bothered the local parts store and still I can't find them. The dealer told me that they only come as part of other things. (For example the valence panel under the radiator) I was able to buy the galvanized bolts that go in them from Jaguar, but not the nuts.
Thanks

C2C28406 is not what your looking for, just got a few.
Goes someplace else.
C2C35071 looks to be the Jaguar number.
Ordered some to replace a few missing, or rusted ones.
Figure the metallurgy should be better than big box stores.
As well as many hardware stores, that sell a cheaper grade.
To compete with big box stores that sell same junk.

Wingrider,
I'm going to wait until you get your C2C35071 to see if they are right. The catalog is very confusing on these. Also I'm not overly impressed with the metallurgy and or plating of the originals! The rusty one in the picture is one of my BEST ones.
Anyway, thanks for trying to help me figure this out.
