Source for quarter turn canvas fasteners

[alpine44]

Does anyone have a source for the quarter turn fasteners that hold the two-man roof down on the backside of the B-pillar/arch?

What is the military name or NSN for these doohickeys?

I found similar fasteners from marine supply places but I would rather install the real deal with the correct rivet spacing. The holes are already in the arch but for some reason the fasteners are missing.

I bought mine from ebay.

They even came with self-tapping screws that were much easier to use than the rivets. Fit the existing holes perfectly.

There is a brand Common Sense fasteners. I ordered them from Amazon, same seller on eBay. Some have mounts for screws or rivets some have prongs to be folded over to mount on canvas.

uaintl-2008 on ebay is sold out of the fasteners but there are other sellers. The other fasteners are not too expensive to try whether they fit.

Most shops that make truck tarps and boat covers can get you the canvas fasteners you are looking for, but you might want to check MSC's on line catalog (Machinist's Supply Company) as they have a wealth of such odd items, as does Grainger.

Good luck!
