My "new to me" 1997 M1102. (Question about correct rivets)

Hello, I recently purchased a 1997 M1102 from a private party. It came with the cover, hoops, and mounts, but the cover was trashed, so I replaced it with a new green cover from https://www.easternsurplus.net/. I also purchased new (old stock) shocks and reflectors from https://www.easternsurplus.net/. Additionally I purchased three unused 2018 BFGoodrich Baja tires from https://csmarmytires.com/ and three wheels from http://www.trailworthyfab.com. I'm very happy with the products and service from all three companies.

I mounted all three tires, installed the shocks, and undercoated using "Fluid Film" which I've used on my 3/4 ton Pickup. The trailer had some surface rust, but it's still solid. I also purchased 10mm rivnuts and replaced many of these for the cover mount attachment points. Also found a 7 pin connector on Ebay and replaced the NATO connector. All of these maintenance procedures went well. The previous owner had already changed it to a 12 volt LED system.

Question: Can anybody identify a source for the correct rivets used on this trailer? I need to replace the reflector covers with the parts from Eastern. Thanks!

@Guyfang was the solution to finding the numbers.
He knows how to make a number hunting quest go really easy for the rest of us!

Glad you have what you needed.
