Try the mail-order supply house McMaster Carr (see below), they will be able to get it if you can't find it locally, but you will have to find out the thread size and pitch.
Metric fasteners are spec'd by nominal diameter of the threaded portion (measure the diameter across the threads, will probably be 6mm or 8mm, so an M6 or M8) and the thread pitch, in millimeters (distance from one thread to the next), so an M6 x 1.5mm will be a 6mm nominal screw thread, with a 1.5mm thread pitch, M8 x 1.25mm, etc.
If you can't find the correct head style locally, you can probably match the thread pitch and diameter with metric stuff that they do have, then you can order one with the correct head style.
Best,
Drew
