You should be able to find a suitable replacement at Home Depot or Lowes. They actually have a decent selection of metric fasteners (nuts/bolts/screws), and I'd bet you can find something that'll work. They're kept on the hardware aisle w/ all the standard nuts and bolts. Just look for the slideout drawers w/ pictures of similar fasteners on them, labeled metric.
Over the years I've been able to get most of what I need for things like this, when I'm working on a car project and lose a fastener.

If you go to the service bay at most dealerships, there's always a quick-stop bay where easy 5 minute fixes are performed. There's usually a pretty savvy tech stationed in that bay, and has tons of drawers of just clips and screws and miscellaneous small items to fix small stuff.
I've asked for a few plugs and screws in the past, and he just reaches in to a drawer and hands them to me.
You might try that and see if your dealership is as friendly as mine.
