Default Part number for 3rd brake light speed nut

I'm trying to figure out the part number for the speed nut that attaches the 3rd brake light to the spoiler. Mine are rusted and need to be replaced. Using generic speed nuts pushes the brake light away from the spoiler so there's a gap.

The nut is not shown on any parts diagrams I can find.

take the nut to a fasteners shop. get a stainless nut while you’re at it.

I should clarify... The speed nuts I have are gone. They rusted to the point that they broke upon removal and were thrown away.

I figured it would be quite easy to replace them, but everything I've tried doesn't have the brake light sitting in the spoiler correctly. Jaguar does not offer the speed nuts separately (or, the spoiler and lighting parts diagrams don't include the part number).

I'm sure if I had a part number from someone who's worked in a parts department and had to order them, or familiar with Jaguar clip and fastener part numbers from working in a service center, I would be able to get them online.
