no.4 mount rivets
I'm replacing the no.4 mount bracets on the body.I buzzed off the rivets that held them on.Now,was there an adhesive on the mount and can I use standard "pop" rivets instead of the alum ones that the factory used.It would be a two man job to peen them over otherwise.thanks in advance

Some folks have actually done this using small Stainless Steel machine screws. Someone posted pictures of the job they did using them a while back, you may be able to do a search and find the thread.

I used the factory style rivets for all but the outer rivets. Those two I couldn't get a good shot at it due to the inner fender.
I used a standard pop rivet here and all was well.
The factory rivets are definately a two man job.
