Turnbuckle fasteners for Cigarette cockpit cover
Anyone know where I can buy these? A few of mine are busted and the rest are in pretty bad shape. Tried a few different metal cleaners/polish and they still look really dull. Was hoping to find exact replacements.

Thanks guys....those ones from BoatersWorld seem a bit pricy compared to these :

and these:
http://www.yourautotrim.com/doubtwoscrew.html
The ones in that second link seem way too cheap and don't look like the same thing as whats on the boat now.
What do you guys think?

This is what I found under fabric fasteners...
Turn-Button Fasteners
Use these fasteners to attach leather, canvas, and other fabrics to solid materials such as wood and fiberglass. Made from nickel-plated brass. To install, cut the fabric using the cutting punch (sold separately). Push the eyelet prongs through the fabric and use a small hammer to crimp the prongs over the washer on the opposite side of the fabric. Then, screw the stud base or screw stud (requires special hand driver , sold separately) to the solid material. Once installed, a spring holds the turn button under tension until turned by hand.
Eyelet is 1 1/16" Lg. x 13/16" Wd. Washer is 1" Lg. x 3/4" Wd. Stud base is 1 1/4" Lg. x 15/32" Wd. and has two holes for #6 screws (not included).
