Any suggestions on how to remove the rivots ? >> Larry, They have drill bits designed for rivet removal. However if you are careful, you can use a regular drill bit. Put the tip of the bit at the center of the rivet and carefully drill until the flat shoulder is cut away from the rest of the rivet body. Use pop-rivets to reinstall your new cupholders. BenT |
