You need to go to an auto upholstery shop that does convertible tops to =
see what they have for snaps.

=20

You might be able to get behind the screw hole and gently hammer the =
hole smaller.

AuVeCo 14833 is a #8 screw button snap but I don=E2=80=99t know if it =
will fit or if it is what you need.

Hello,

=20

The vinyl cover for the convertible top on Mk1A's and MkII has both =
'Lift-the-Dot" and  button snap fasteners.

Does anyone know a source for a button snap with the original size =
button but with a # 8 screw. I tried West Marine and all they have is =
various length # 6.

Thanks in advance,
