Tail lights - rivot or screw

I'm working on a 67 c10. One of the tail light bezels is secured with screws. The other is with rivots. Any one know which is the original?

Neither. Only Clips were used on 67/68. 69/72 used two screws in addition to the clips.

Neither were used, the 67/68 tail bezels were attached using clips only. In 69 the tail bezel style changed at which time clips and screws were used for mounting. Mel
