cockpit surround fasteners?

Hey all,

What type of fasteners are used for the rear cockpit surround for a 68 sprite. I know the ends are those chrome finishers with the bolts w/those little snap-dot things(Tenax maybe??).

Thanks for the help.

Each side gets 3 Tenax studs, the originals had a 10/32 thread on them. 4 studs if you eliminate the velcro.
The replacement studs sold at VB are metric! Watch out for that. Across the back there are 7 snaps. Boat shops sell a self drilling snap stud in stainless. Don't get the long ones or you will have to nip off the end that sticks into the vinyl cap.

I should think that any boat canvis joint or West Marine should have these in stainless.
