Not sure how to describe this

There is a small clip that clips onto the plastic inside the headlight surround so that you can screw the chrome trim into it! I think that makes sense

I can't seem to find anything individual without buying a whole headlight so thought I'd ask if anyone has one going spare, maybe from a damaged unit?

No it's not a nut, it a small clip with a whole through the middle to grab the end of the screw and keep the chrome trim in place

Any one got a spare one knocking around or a clue as to what I need to order?

Sorry to seem like a complete idiot but I think I set the bar when I didn't even know what it was
