      Tech Tips


      • The rivet labeled (A) is the second rivet from the front of the rear door window frame moulding.

      • The rivet labeled (B) is the third rivet from the front of the rear door window frame moulding.

      • The rivet labeled (C) is the fourth rivet from the front of the rear door window frame moulding.

      • The rivet labeled (D) is the fifth rivet from the front of the rear door window frame moulding.

      • The rivet labeled (E) is the sixth rivet from the front of the rear door window frame moulding.

      Note


      • Pressing the drill too firmly will cause the rivet to turn and result in the rivet not being drilled through.

      • Do not pry the rivet with the drill, because this may cause damage to the installation holes of the rivet or the drill bit.

      • Be careful of the drilled rivet as it may become hot.
