Some rivets on my third gen conv frame are loose, is there any way I could replace them? :confused:
I do not want to replace the complete frame :sad:

I would think you could just drill out the rivets and replace them. HomeDepot and Lowes sell rivets and a rivet tool to replace them. Just have to match up the size.

You can replace them,but if they are the 1/4" or 3/16" rivits you will need a special rivit gun.But I think I know which ones you are talking about,and they are 1/8" rivits with a big head on them.
