Garth:
I recently whent to a fasteners company that supply the company I work for and asked for similar Items
And he said "auto motive clips"
BUT then he said "there are about 500 differnent types and sizes"
as there were so many different types he only bought in to order by the box full

Sorry not to be more help

datalas:
Last time I ordered some I asked for "those stupid little bent metal nut thingies that are used to hold the doors on"

then again, I've never been that good with descriptions

drum:

--- Quote from: "xmob" ---I thought that the nuts used on the A post were caged nuts, and the name of the ones in question were captive nuts.  And theres Panex ones that are quarter turn.  Take a look at the Fasteners/Fixings section of http://rswww.com

Tried flicking through the RS catalogue can't find them.

I thought Captive Nuts, were "welded" place, Caged Nuts clip onto a square hole (instead of onto the sheet), and Panex is another name for Zeus.

Garth:
Captive refers to the fact that "you can not access once assembled" so caged nuts are captive as well as projection nuts (welded on) and pressed nuts  (pressed in a bit like rivits).
