FAQs

What vehicles are these rivets compatible with?

These rivets are equivalent to BMW OE part number 07147391324 and are typically used for wheel arch trims and body trim panels on various BMW models. It is always recommended to confirm the OE part number and dimensions match your vehicle's requirements.

Do I need a special tool to install these rivets?

Yes, a specialized riveter tool is required to install these plastic trim rivets. A riveter like the Laser Part No. 5494 is suitable.

What is the material of these rivets?

The rivets are made from durable white nylon, which offers good resistance to vibration and corrosion.

What is the length and hole diameter of these rivets?

The rivets have a length of 51mm and are designed for holes with a 6mm diameter.

Can I use these rivets for applications other than BMW trim?

While designed for BMW trim, their 6mm hole diameter and 51mm length make them suitable for other automotive or general-purpose applications requiring similar-sized plastic fasteners, provided the material is compatible.

Are these rivets reusable?

Plastic rivets are generally not designed for multiple reuses. Once installed and expanded, removing them often requires breaking them or can damage them, so it's best to use new rivets for each installation.

Where can I find a replacement for a larger quantity?

A pack of 50 of these rivets is also available under Part No. 32330.

Troubleshooting

Rivet does not expand or secure the panel

Ensure the riveter tool is properly aligned with the rivet stem. Check that the riveter is suitable for plastic rivets and is set to the correct tension. Verify the rivet is fully seated in the 6mm hole.

Rivet stem breaks off prematurely

The riveter tool might be set too aggressively or is not designed for plastic rivets. Try adjusting the riveter's setting or using a different tool recommended for plastic rivets.

Rivet is too loose after installation

Confirm the hole diameter is exactly 6mm. If the hole is slightly larger, the rivet may not grip effectively. Ensure the trim panel is seated correctly before riveting.
