Thanks for the tip. Is there a particular size setting tool I should try
to get for these rivets? Also, is the idea to angle the vent wing
assembly (removed from door, of course) so the flat rivet head is set
against a hard surface (in my case a mounted vise) and then strike the
hollow rivet end down with the rivet tool/hammer?

Thanks again,
