Boat canopy turn buttons needed
Discussion
Have you tried contacting a local sailmaker or cover maker? They will probably have something in stock or will point you in the direction of a supplier of the bits they use.
You could try these people but they're not close to you and normally only supply to the trade ( I think?) but if you only need a couple of replacements they may help you.

Thanks - though I don't see turn buttons there. Six needed, or at least just the oval back plates. It would be a trade sale - I'm having a new canopy fitted and the 'first fit' has been rather a disaster. Hence I was looking for a link I could forward to them. Another idea is to tell them to contact the boat maker.
I must confess I've never seen a plastic turnbuckle used on a boat before and, like you, I cannot see anything on the 'net!
Maybe worth asking the question over on the Tents, Caravans, and Motorhomes forum as they might use them and maybe the item is called something different when used in their world?
