the hood on my staff bag has lost one of the metal fastening studs, any ideas on here where I can buy replacement studs?

I dont want to replace the hood to a generic type or alternative and it is unlikely that I can buy a replacement hood.

I think the studs may be similar to the ones used on older convertible cars and hopefully some practical person on here can point me in the right direction, thanks.

Timpsons or an old fashioned cobbler.
Not many of them left though.
Ebay sometimes have stuff like this if you can do it yourself.
Other way is use Velcro pads .

Thanks all, not straight forward but definitely pointed in the right direction.

The poppers are different sizes to standard dress ones so had to be ordered specially, the spuds on the bad are extra long also so needed to be located from other suppliers.

For reference it was a shoe and leather repair shop that worked it out.

Thank goodness I still have a proper cobbler with a shop near my office, he is invaluable for all sorts of odd things
