Just find one that already exists and is close enough to what you want, you can always pack either side with washers a bit anyway.
You can NOT put one bolt through the middle or the nylon wont be a mount anymore the bolt will do that job and you will get massive vibration.

type in "bobbins" or "cotton reel mounts" in google and see what comes up.

chances are this lot will be base more around vauxhall bits but u might get lucky

ok cheers dude,
i should be ok
if you look at the pic below, it rest's on this mount, and there are two other small mounts which keep it in place
so it can't move anywhere, but having a solid (welded) mount made a massive difference in vibration through the car( bad)
really apreciate the help from you and everyone in this thread
