vent window seals

What is the best method for replacement seals on the vent windows?
Will a rivet gun work to hold them in?

thanks.
Paul

That's how they came from the factory, the weatherstrip was riveted in to the window frame. I just did that to both vent windows in mine last week and it worked out great.

I'm doing mine this week I think the closest rivit size would be 3/16"that is what I have determined any ways.
