Does anyone know the size of the rivets for the rocker panel cover ? I had to replace mine today since it has been cracked for so long found a decent one at the bone yard that I installed but need rivets to finish

Sizes not shown in P22 Parts Book. I am guessing they were 1/4"x 1/2" long - maybe someone can verify.
But the 3 top ones were aluminum, and the ones along the bottom were plastic rivets when I took these off.

I want to say 1/4" diameter, but am not 100% sure. That said, I replaced all those rivets with threaded rivets (aka rivnuts) and machine screws. That makes it easier to replace body panels.

I do have rivets and the gun but I replaced mine with stainless steel nuts, washers & bolts. Reusable next time around.
