I'm not sure about the saloon, on coupe and estate it's kind of a big spring clip roughly the profile of a bass clef, a big hole in the middle for the lock to pass through, and you pull it to one side to tension the lock against the bootlid. I'll try to take a photo when I remember. As for where to get one, you could try a post in the "wanted" section.
