January 19, 201114 yr comment_342633 Found these at the local hardware store in the section where they keep all the little specialty items (nuts, bolts, fasteners, etc). The box had a part number of 58659 and was probably from Hilmans. It says "Push fast variable depth" 7/16 flange X 5/8 stem. The head is probably 7/16 and it is about a milimeter in diameter narrower. The length is 5/8. It also says "Ford/GM" The picture isn't focused very well (automatic camera wants to argue over what I am taking a picture of). The rivet on the left is the new one, the one on the right is the original.

January 19, 201114 yr comment_342635 Thanks. That gives me an idea of what to look for. I do have a batch of black POM rivets that I will try when I put the big LEDs in my 73.

January 19, 201114 yr comment_342660 I couldn't find anything like original so I used Stainless Steel finish screws that sit in a SS cup. Looks nice on the charcol/grey/black trim. The one IdahoKid shows would work and removable without losing the little pin.Bonzi Lon Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/38267-exterior-taillight-trim-piece-plastic-rivits/?&page=2#findComment-342660 Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 22, 201113 yr comment_367122 I driiled the hole out a very small amount and used an interior rivet. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/38267-exterior-taillight-trim-piece-plastic-rivits/?&page=2#findComment-367122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
September 22, 201113 yr comment_367138 I driiled the hole out a very small amount and used an interior rivet.That's what I did too. Not a problem unless you need to keep it original for a concours show event.
