The one at the rear bulkhead behind the seats is the connector for the fuel tank harness. You can drill the rivets out without any problem, the tank is below that point. That black piece for the antenna just screws off either with an antenna wrench or a pair of needle nose pliers. BTW, if you are sitting there scratching your head wondering what an antenna wrench is. It is a tool with two prongs in it that fit in those little notches on that nut.

Use a drill bit that is just a little larger than the hole of the rivet to remove the connector. You don't have to drill all the way through the rivet, just enough to cut off the head. Then use a straight pin punch to push out the Pop-rivets. Re-install it with aluminum Pop-Rivets of the same diameter and pull-up range.

I sell an antenna wrench to remove the antenna bezel nut.
