One of the shocks snapped off my truck cap/shell rear window. The rivet heads popped off where it fastens on the frame around 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
Can you come in with a fairly large drill bit. say the diameter of the rivet head, and then come in at an angle and chew away at the rivet head sideways? I have been abl;e todo that a number of times.
A dremmel with a grindstone or milling cutter
