            Hi Guys,<br>
            <br>
            Has anyone come up with a way of installing the original
            solid rivets into the lip boot opening lip? The ones that
            you can't get anything up inside the chassis frame to buck
            the rivets.<br>
            <br>
            I've seen some people using pop rivets and so on but I'd
            rather use the correct type if there is any way to tighten
            them up<br>
            <br>
            Andy.<br>
