Default Rivet Removal?

One of the shocks snapped off my truck cap/shell rear window. The rivet

seems to go through the weather-strip in the frame and there is nowhere
for the remaining shank to go, drilling just spins it. Now what the @#$@
do I do? Thanks ;-p


Not sure what you are talking about, but I'll answer anyway.
Punch it in and replace with a pop-rivet?
