Re: Roof Door seal replacement.How?



An issue on removing the old pop rivets. I've done this 3 or 4 times 
over the years and I don't remember worrying so much about the 
torsion bar as I did drilling through the door when removing the old 
pop rivets. I've seen that damage and it would ruin my day if I did 
that. I used a 3 inch putty knife inserted down inside the door 
behind the rivets and between the door frame and door skin to block 
any slip. I figured a $5 bit was worth the sacrifice if I slipped. 
The last time I did this replacement I used the softer aluminum pop 
rivets as replacements. I couldn't tell a difference and the next 
time I take them out I hope they will be easier - which is yet to be 
known.
