I've tried the obvious places like B&Q Screwfix but they're all too big, I need a really small one, prehaps 2mm x 5mm, something like that.

My local hardware shop on Newfield green stocks them too big as well.

Any ideas.

Would it be worth trying HobbyCraft or a waste of time?

I don't remember seeing such things in hobbycraft, but it's worth giving them a ring before setting out

Moss Plastics have a place off Shepcote Lane, they seem to do what you're after:

That's only pretty bloody perfect.

Do you know if you can just like walk into their place like a normal shop or is it just online ordering?

EDIT.

In fact I'll just order them online, I only need 2 to fix my guitar and it says you can get 2 free samples so that's pretty perfect.

Thanks a lot!

No problem. You can buy by visiting them yes, but it's more of a warehouse than a shop. Best to ring first to check they have the stock and can get it ready for you.
