Window regulator parts

I got a used RH window regulator. Looks good but is missing one of the mounting nuts.
Anybody got one of these or know where I can get one?
The "new" one uses a different method of retaining the nuts than my old one.
The pic shows the one I need.

This is the retained nut I need.

Those cage nuts can be had on Amazon , eBay, and I bet any good hardware or automotive supply store.

"Cage Nuts". I didn't know what to call them. Thanks!
I just looked at the regulator and the fasteners and the fasteners LMC sent for the window regulators.
LMC # 40-0486. The fasteners fit the regulator but I can't determine what size they are. Not 1/4-20 and not 10-24.

Are they 12-24? In my life I've never used a 12-24 fastener

I don’t know the size, but you can take the existing one to a hardware store and size it using screws from their bins.

I'm not familiar with what you have, but I wonder if the new nut might have metric threads. I seem to remember that I've run into that with parts.

Unfortunately when some of these vendors have repro parts made overseas, they do use metric threads. I can't accept that on my Ford!! Just get the proper thread (probably 1/4-20) caged nuts and bolts.

...yeah, I've been there too. Always wondered why they just don't all use the same bleeder screw regardless of origin, and make it standard.

I thought I remembered that from when I did my brakes but couldn't remember if it was the bleeders or the mounting bolts.

Because that would make too much sense! And I wouldn't of had an excuse to buy a new bleeder wrench,
