RIVET INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

These instructions are for Trim Tag rivet installation only. 

There are two methods to install the rivets:

1) The easiest way is to merely epoxy the rivets in place (do not use super glue). Put a small amount of epoxy around the barrel part of the rivet and push the rivet through the trim tag into the firewall/cowl. Let the epoxy set and the tag will look like it was installed at the factory. No one can see behind the firewall/cowl to see that the rivet was not crushed against the back. As an extra precaution I would suggest putting a dab of the epoxy on the back of the trim tag.

2) We now offer a custom made rivet installation tool for an additional $17.00 when you order a new trim tag. This tool will ensure that the rivets are installed in precisely the same way the factory installed them at the plant. The appearance of the rivet from both the front and the back will be factory correct. Also, note that most trim tag rivets had Black Sealer/ Body Filler (caulk) pushed into the hollow part of the rivet after installation
