I've always called them plastic rivets or plastic push fasteners. If you use either term on ebay, you end up with hundreds to choose from.
I just think you have to measure the length and diameter to get the correct size, then decide on the style and colour.
I think Halfords suppy them too, but a lot more expensive than ebay.
