I ended up getting the tool from Trade Tools. Definetely not cheap but hopefully it lasts forever.
It is Japanese made apparently, brand is Lobster and comes in a metal case with four different size dies etc.
You can get the complete range of Rivnut's / Nut inserts and tools from Rivnut Fastening Systems Fastening Systems | Rivnut based in Capalaba but deliver Australia wide. 1300 887 341.
I've used this method a number of times now:

No special tool needed.
The rivnut tools seem to vary depending on what size rivnuts are needed.
For example you can get
M3 - M8
M6 - M12
What would be the most useful for us ?
Marson is a brand that I have - Metric ribbed rivet nut kit # 39316. I use aluminium & steel rivet-nuts with this tool- no probs. Available from Blackwoods in Melbourne
A 5 year post is reborn, is it Easter ?

Seems to work well,and they also sell the rivnuts,etc.
I needed to do 12mm,mine does 12 to 6mm.
