QUOTE(dr914@autoatlanta.com @ Jun 18 2007, 04:49 PM) The plastic rivets are a very particular size for the thresholds and rocker panels, and only available at the factory. That's because the freaking plastic rivets have been removed and the holes have been filled with aftermarket aluminum rivets for the last 30 plus years. I have a set of the "Perfect factory" ones and they fit like crap. WAY too small. If you have TOTALLY unmolested rockers it MIGHT be okay. If not, don't waste the money.... |
