You need to ask an auto upholstery shop where they source their fasteners.
I'm lucky, here in Denver there is a company called B&D that supplies shops and will gladly sell onsies/twosies to walk in traffic.
They have large books, separated by manufacturer, showing all the specialty fittings and fasteners used and even if they don't have the exact replacement, they always have something that will work.

He's talking about something else, they loops the wires and also have a shaft with spurrs on it that you can use to stick wires and ect to a wall/floor.
