Use a screw centre or push centre one, you will find them in Halfords or any good motor factors.
Standard one does not have a screw centre but the screw or push centre is easier to remove.

Good question, I have packets of them in the garage because they are used in cars also, but never checked the sizes.
Check it with a bolt to see what size goes in and buy accordingly  :thumbup

Hi these are the ones I got for doing the black infill panels on the front fairing, they're a good match to the originals.
