I'm going with www.skybolt.com
Look at the CLoc fasteners on the left. They are pricey at about $10 per
fastener assembly, but I'm convinced they are worth it. I've talked to
people who just finished their Velocity, and a major complaint is that in
the beginning, due to inspections or repairs, it is tedious to continuously
remove and reinstall the cowl. I would consider something like this a
safety item. I'm lazy, if I am going to have a hard time to get in and
inspect something, I may defer it till later.
I spoke to them and examined the product at Sun n Fun. Looks good.

Before I install butterfly nuts for countersunk screws; has someone found
a good cam-lock type fastener that only requires a 90 degree twist, that
works well for our application? – and looks good?
