Where to find truss rod nut for Squier?

I have a Squier Affinity P bass neck that is missing it's truss rod nut. I have tried a standard Fender MIM and Bullet truss rod nut, and both are too large to fit over the threads. They are 10/32. The Squier is likely metric.

Anyone know where I can purchase one. My local Fender dealer was absolutely no help.

Snap a pic of the headstock and neck where it meets with the bass body. Judging by the pics on Squire's website, it looks like it is at the headstock with no cover. Hopefully, another Squire owner will chime in though.

I screwed up the original post. (Edited now). I actually need the truss rod nut, that threads on to the truss rod. It is missing. (Project neck). The MIM and USA Bullet style truss rod nuts did not work.

It does adjust at the headstock.

I just had a MIM truss rod nut shipped to Japan, only to find out it's an SAE size (3/16", according to this site), not metric. Shoulda checked first! It did not fit on my MII Affinity P neck or my MIK ProTone neck (they take the same size).

Anybody know where to find one? Can't seem to find them on eBay.
