I thought this was just to hold the wheel centre. You should have one but I don't think it's especially lethal to not have one? Just causes more vibration??

anywhere that sells alloys should sell them, you might have to wait a few days for them.
just tell them what wheels you have (td's) and the car they're for and they should sort you out.
get a spare aswell because if you split one when taking a wheel of you'll be fucked.
they cost about £4 each.

The bolts should line up to hold the wheel tight and square.
The spigots helps hold the wheel in place while you get the bolts in more than anything.
