When I took my car apart the door thresholds were held on with 24 white nylon or plastic rivits.
Does anyone know where to buy them? I don't see them listed in any of the popular places. Tx Doug |

Those are simply plastic blind rivets with a mandrel that pulls to expand the rivet tail and presumably the mandrel breaks off. My understanding is that the originals are plastic rivets in which you push on the mandrel into place to expand the rivet tails. Then you can further push the mandrel right out of the rivet for removal (and reuse).
