How do you do this?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I think I know the answer...just hoping it might not be. I wanted to replace the rubber seals on my vents, and was sortof surprise when the package with seals that look like this.

Any of you ever do yours?

I figure I'm gonna have to drill the rivets out, right?

Then what...get new rivets or will some small bolts & nuts work better?

Appreciate any suggestion.

Thanks

mmmmmmmmm...looks like a gasket sandwich. I would drill out the old rivets and then replace with pop rivets.

See which one gets filled first.
