Hello Don
In England the screws that you refer to are called
mirror screws (cos they are used for fixing mirrors).
There is how ever a different type which has a
plastic rebated washer that goes under the head of the screw.
Then when the screw has been fully tightened a
chrome cup is clipped over the rebated washer.
This second method I prefer. Both types in England
can be purchased in most hardware DIY outlets.
I trust this has been of some help,
Regards Jac.

Please look at the photo "screw" in the photos section and tell me if
anyone has seen anything like this. They are used on my door panels
and the pedal box. They're chromed.
The cap is smooth and screws into the top of the screw after the
screw has been "screwed". Get it?
They are very nice looking and I would like to get more of them. I
partially ruined one trying to get it off before I figured out that
the top "unscrews". I've tried upholstery shops, etc. with no luck.
Does anyone else have them on their car? ; Were they original??
Any help, clues, etc. would be appreciated!
