(spare) rivet alternative

Don't ask, but I managed to loose my bag of rivets that keep the top in place...

And I have been loosing rivets without wanting to take em out.

So, what other (size) of rivets can I get to replace the original ones ?  Link to amazon/aliexpress appreciated. Don't want them to pop out too easily, but they do need to be removable, if only to assist when changing a nozzle (eagerly waiting for an alternative way of doing this...)

Wish I had an answer to your specific question but the rivets are not really required. After taking the top off the first time, I put it back on without the rivets.

There are a couple magnetic mods to hold it on, but I find I don't really need to even do that.
