Rusty,

While I agree you have a perfect method and, wow even down to the rivet roll size. No doubt that you are correct to do it off the car, but I have jumped through hoops to get it on, and I don't think I can imagine taking it off again at least not right away.

There has to be some plier thing that I can buy from someone with the right 9/16 inch head rivet that smashes it in like a vise or clamp?

thanks,
kim
