Re: rivets in my headliner
hello
nope they are not rivets!!!
in the dome light there are like 2 rivets but they are not!! they are like 2 nails out of the body to align the headliner in the center and they are like smallwashers with a star shape inside to keep the headliner and dome light in place!!
to remove you dont need any dremels but you only need a broken small screwdriver with the end of if it in a 90 degree angle so you can pull down those called like washers with starshape inside!!
good luck and i am sure because i took of mine 2 day!!
