Does anyone know what kind of tool it takes to install the snap sockets
and studs for the Midgets (the snaps in the interior fiberboard panel in
the rear for the boot cover hold down snaps)

        The snap is a two piece design with a backing post which when
installed, has an end which flares out through the socket and holds the
snap socket in place. (like the kind of socket and scew combination for
the Tonneau cover sockets, but without a screw securing it.)

        I have tried using a regular rivet, but it does not hold for very
long.  I was told that it would take a special tool.  Any ideas of how
its done or what they used originally?
