replacement rivets?
I installed front mudflaps yesterday.
The driver side mudflap installed well, however, I broke both the push pins of the rivets for the passenger side.
I missed the alignment (for the rivets) on the passenger side by a few mm, and hence, they had a hard time going in - eventually giving up and breaking.
Any idea regarding replacement part numbers?
I'm thinking of installing screws (self tapping?) instead of the stubborn rivets. Has anybody tried this? I think a 5mm or 11-32 screw might fit.
EDIT: Got the part number, if anybody's interested: 51161881149 and cost around $0.19 to $0.39 each depending on vendor.
