This has been a really fascinating and illuminating (sorry!) exchange - and
for once I can contribute definitively. The thread on the T20 TTL
autoconnector is a standard tripod thread, 1/4 inch Whitworth at 20 threads
per inch. If you really cab't get any in Belgium, Olafo, I can send some to
you.

Now... For a tiny practical thingy: yesterday I managed to find an aluminum
strip, but I was very annoyed to find that the hardware shop I was at only
has metric sized bolts, and the thread on the bolts wouldn't really (i.e.
correctly) fit to that of the T20 connectors.
I am going to call around a bit, but it would be handy to know the exact
thread diameter (is that 1/8th inch or so?) as well as the correct thread
indication. I'm about to Google this, but does anyone perhaps know the exact
dimensions of the width and thread size off hand?
Cheers,
Olafo
