looking for "Detent" electrical connectors/contacts

I have been looking all over for a some type of connector/contact that
I can use to connect power between to separate cases that slide
together. The cases are made of plastic, and I was thinking some type
of contact that looks like a rivet or screw head (Slightly convex
head). The contact on the other side would be slightly concave. So
the contacts would sort of snap together when they are moved into
position across from each other. This would also prevent the to cases
from sliding apart, until enough pressure is exerted. I know that
Milmax and others make a spring version of something similar to this,
but I would prefer to use the slight flexibility of the plastic case
to provide the spring action, not to mention keeping the design
simpler. It would be great if these were simple "push-through" barbed
contacts. Does anyone know of a supplier for something like this?
