FAQs
What vehicles are these rivets compatible with?

Each set contains 50 pieces.
Can these rivets be used for exterior trim?

Are these rivets reusable?

What tool is needed to install these rivets?
Installation typically involves pushing the stem or expanding the rivet body using a trim removal tool or a specialized fastener tool. Consult your vehicle's manual for the exact method.
Troubleshooting
Rivet does not hold securely
Ensure the hole size is correct (63 mm) and the rivet is fully engaged. Check if the trim material is damaged, preventing a secure fit.
Rivet stem is difficult to insert
Verify that the hole is clean and free of debris. Gently twist the rivet during insertion. Ensure you are using the correct rivet for the application.
Rivet breaks during installation
Apply steady, even pressure. Avoid forcing the rivet. If the material is too thick or rigid for plastic rivets, a different fastener type may be required.
