Replied by Max Headroom on topic Rubber fixing
Dammit I was at the Restoration show at the NEC the other week and there was a company selling all manner of fasteners like that. I'm kicking myself for not paying attention now!

Just replace them with pop rivets? I know you can get them in different sizes and in black.

Replied by Max Headroom on topic Re:Rubber fixing
Pop rivets would be an easy solution but I didn't mention it due to the fact that they're usually made from Monel metal and with the amount of corrosion that Jimny's seem to attract I would have shied away from metal fasteners, and gone with something more like the original plastic thingies.
If poppers are the way forward for this, I'd be tempted to form them when they've been dipped in some poly type adhesive such as THIS STUFF
