Oh - indeed. I meant in terms of popping down your local shed to
get them. Last time I looked, Screwfix didn't have them.

if you do electrical diy you'll have plenty sitting about.

Screws of various lengths, yes; a tap for opening out old 4BA holes,
but screws? I've never found the need.

sory, I meant "nuts".

I'm sorry to hear you've never found the need for your nuts. Nearly every
electrical backbox contains a pair.

all the backboxes that I've used have tapped holes on the lugs. I can't
quite see how to fit a nut. Perhaps glue it to the lug?
