Just a note on the rivets - make sure you use stainless steel rivets as aluminum ones *can* corrode. Also, you are supposed to take the T-panel off in order to get the seals out + mounting bracket. It's much more easier to get everything back in too. I hope you removed or at least covered your torsion bars so your drill didn't scratch them.

I did it and managed to take the rivit heads off, then to take the seal out, i had to bend and twist it out. How am i suspposed to put a new one on with the door on. THe old piece looks like a "Z" once it came off. I still have to take the rest of the rivits out too. > > David Teitelbaum <jtrealty@xxxx> wrote:They are not special Delorean rivets.
