"Common sense fastener" or "Twist-Lock" fastener should get you what you need.

Try Marine Canvas outfits, upholsterers and leather makers both local and on-line.

I purchased the fasteners above using the Amazon link, they'll work fine for my project, and it was much cheaper and easier than sourcing the pieces separately. For future reference the proper combo is a DOT brand Common Sense Eyelet, Common Sense Four Hole Washer, and a Double Common Sense Turn Button - all in black oxide. And that's for a 2013 tonneau cover.
