Headlight switch nut

I feel so stupid.. I've been rewiring my 73 F100 and somehow I lost the nut that screws into the headlight switch to hold it in place.

Anyone got any ideas for how to get another one? I'd rather not go all the way out to a junkyard just for that nut... but I will if I have to.

the replacement switches I've seen just have the switch, not the nut. I wouldn't mind having a spare switch on hand anyway.

Salvage yards or place a want ad in the classifieds.

Next time slip those nuts and special fasteners back on the parts etc.
