You should be able to get them from any hardware store. They are just a crown nut.

Depends on his engine(in which he didn't specify). The DOHC use nuts to hold the valve cover down. However, SOHCs use 5 bolts..not nuts.

In that case, like junkie said you can probably go to a hardware store and find the nuts to match or go to a Acura/Honda dealership.

You might have better luck at the Hardware store than you did at Autozone or Pepboys. Most hardware stores have huge cabinets with SAE and Metric bolts/nuts, etc. Even Lowes and Home Depot do although around here the ACE Hardware has a better selection.
