[Healeys] rubber bonnet bumpers

[Jean Caron]

Tom,

The rubber buffers need to have a hole about the size of the rivet drilled or punched on one side only, then the rivet, a copper plated split rivet, followed by the washer will go through the rubber, shroud and then squeezed over. See illustration.

Subject: [Healeys] rubber bonnet bumpers

I need to replace the rubber bonnet bumpers on my BJ8.  From the Moss catalog, I see the following parts:


  *   031-359, rubber buffer
  *   325-765, rivet
  *   325-770, copper washer

How do you rivet the rubber buffer to the shroud?   Is this a pop-rivet, or some other kind of rivet?  I have a pop-rivet gun, do I need another tool?

thanks,

Tom
