split rivet

Post by Cacti_Ken »

I need ten split rivets, black finish, at least 5/8" long, 5/16" head, 1/8" or 9/64" shaft. The ones I have in the kit are too short to rivet the grill insulator strap at the head light hole since there is an 1/8" thick reinforcement strap tacked inside the frame.

I can only find some locally that are nickle plated plus the head is smaller.

Ok, cancel my request. I was able to get the short ones to work although I had my doubts at first.
