1976 vent window rivots
Anyone know when I can get new rivots. I want to replace my seals and rivot them back in.

Re: 1976 vent window rivots
Look at your windows. I drilled mine out in the channel. Not the pivot point. Simply used steel rivets when I installed them

Re: 1976 vent window rivots
By steel, do I mean pop rivets?

Re: 1976 vent window rivots
To change your seals properly you will want to remove the pivoting glass frame from the vent assembly. You can use pop rivets for the division post seal, but the outer pivot is a stepped rivet that would require a mushrooming tool. There are rivet kits available thru several suppliers that have the seals and new glass.
