Replacement machine heads (Takamine)

I've got an old Takamine EG332C - nothing special, but OK for what it is. Giving it a bit of overdue TLC a while back I clocked that at least one, possibly two, of the tuners are a bit shot, in that the main thread for the anchoring nut is stripped, so they won't fully tighten.

It doesn't cause any issues with tuning stability, but it's something I probably ought to sort out. Guitar's not worth anything, and doesn't have enough soul or emotional attachment to make it worth investing more than it's worth, so ideally I'm looking for drop-in replacement. Googling "Takamine spare parts" and "Takamine machine heads" is unsurprisingly unhelpful when looking for items for a 25 year old guitar that was low-end at the time.

Any ideas as to what might do the job without involving drills and unnecessary grief?
