Good morning guys, in between the f'ing rain up here in Maine I've been picking away at a list of maintenance whatnots on the Café. I have a couple fasteners that I'd like to replace, the upper side panels in the cockpit are held in by plastic Christmas trees as I know them but I'm not sure of the configuration/shape of the fixed end; I'd rather not go yanking them out until I have the replacements. The other item is the interior vinyl buttons that cover the screws in the V-berth. Could anyone in the know shed some light on the two items? Thanks guys.

try this place for the Christmas tree clips http://www.clipsandfasteners.com/sea...ouble+end+xnas
the magenta caps may be tough to find

Find a local upholstery shop. They can make the buttons up for you. You will need to find vinyl to match.

Any aouto parts place will have the Christmas tree the white push in faster. The other any poster shop can do it but you have to have the fabric for them to make the snap cover

Thanks guys. I shoulda put on my thinking cap for the upholstery shop answer... As for the fasteners, I know I can find them at a whole host of venders; what I'd like to know is what does the fixed non Christmas tree end look like; I have most of the interior removal tools but these things are brittle and I dont want to go attempting to remove any until I have a bag in hand. It seems If I use one of the V shaped poppers it'll just snap it off at the base..

may look like this

Thanks to you and Kefurr, I went ahead and ordered 2 bags. If they work, great, if not I'll get some more.
