What type of bonnet fixing goes in this hole?

Hi all,

Trying to figure out what type of fixing goes in the holes in my bonnet and boot lid. The top part was removed to be replaced, but then lost.

This is the hole in the bonnet:



This is the hole that it fits onto:



This is whats underneath the receiving hole:




The big hole is 15mm across, and there is roughly 27mm between the two small holes which I assume are for pop rivets.


Anyone fill in the blanks for me?

As other have said they Dzus. Had a really good guide to measuring and fitting but can't seem to find it. However this may help http://pitstopusa.com/p-4099-dzus-fastener-measurement-guidelines.html
My take a while to get into the decimal inches instead of millimetres, but all the guides I've seen are like this. Hard to tell from pic but the spring may be fitted the wrong way round.

Certainly is putting it back on the road after a 6 year hiatus. I've got a build thread running if you're interested.
