So I'm in the process of returning my 1985 4-4-2 to the stock stereo (or as close to as I can get). I pulled out an ancient Kenwood CD deck that no longer worked and want to put in a Delco unit from the 1980s. There's a bunch on eBay but I've noticed none have the Mounting Stud on the back. From what I remember usually it's a off white plastic nipple that threads into the back of the stereo. The Metra Kit had one molded into it to mount the Kenwood.

What's the proper term for these? Anyone got a Part number? Know where I can order one from?

TIA!

Here's an example I found online:

Back in the 90s I remember everyone tossing those Delco 2-Din radios for Alpines/Clarion/Kenwood decks and shelling out big bucks for them and several hundred more for the Clifford Alarms; and here I am tossing all that junk in the garbage to go back to stock!!!

A big thanks to Flemming442, I was able to get my Stereo installed and have that classic 1985 look again:
