door hinge rivets

does anyone know where i can get the rivets that go on the top door hinge? i wasnt sure if they are a special type since the hinge pivets or if i can just use any rivet i can fit in there.. my t/a has bolts in place of the rivets on the top hinges and they are sagging.. i am going to get the car painted soon so i wanted to fix it right..
