    Think they are M8 thread bolts with the plastic on you may have some luck on ebay,could be worth checking the M8,i intend to make some with bolts and a short bar welded on the top but you could use just bolts and a spanner but only with a light touch though Laughing

    Dear All

    So you can buy some m8 threaded bar and bend it through 90o.
    Buy nuts, or buy nuts and get your welder out to tack on T bars.
    Buy the plastic covered nuts from Dandy. Any idea on price?
    Enter "Tri Star Nuts" in google images and find a raft of possible vendors.
    Possibly Components Direct they deal in small quantities but you need a minimum £ 20 order. Prices are ex VAT and there's a £5 packing fee. If a few of you club together @ £1.29 or £1.92 each depending on what spec you want you might save a couple of quid.
    Conversely you might squander on the stainless steel wing knobs, @ £3.36 each.
