If you use pop rivets make sure they are aluminum not steel... LockDoc

Re: Rivets
I like the type that have a theaded shaft and nut. From the top they look like an original rivet but you can easily remove them and reinstall anytime if you had to. Pop rivets will have a hole on the top.
Lots of vendors sell them.
