Replacing Driver/Passenger Windows Does Anybody know what kind/size of rivets are needed to reinstall the side windows in a 89 Trans am. I have bought the new window, and i know that the rivets need to be drilled out to remove the old window. so if i could get those before i tackle it, it would save time. Also Is there a Write up for replacing the Door Windows?? |
Re: Replacing Driver/Passenger Windows the only rivets should be ones that hold the regulators to the door shells use machine screws and nuts to reattach them |
Re: Replacing Driver/Passenger Windows the rivets were used for speed on the assembly line . machine screws with lock-nuts . good luck . |

Re: Replacing Driver/Passenger Windows I know I'm just repeating what others have said, but stick with nuts and bolts. It makes things much easier if you ever have to do the job again. If you're worried about the nuts coming off, get locking nuts or put a dab of locktite on there. |
Re: Replacing Driver/Passenger Windows This site covers the installation well: it points out that rivets won't loosen over time. But I suppose lock nuts wouldn't either. http://www.p71interceptor.com/thirdgen/powerwindows/ |
