Default Window Regulator Install???

Hi all, I replaced the gear on my window regulator and I'm not sure if I should use a nut & bolt or pick up some rivets for a stock look. What do you guys think? THANKS

Concidering where it is located and how hard it is to see .... only you will know how you attached the gear. I ended up replacing the whole regulator on the passenger side with a new on.

I have bolted later regulators into earlier doors. I put the bolt in from the inside and the nut on the outside.

Art did you have any problem with installing the door panel with the nut sticking out farther than a rivet? Thanks for your input!
