[Tigers] Hardtop Vent Window

[Joe Brown]

Hey,
I recently restored my hardtop and had all of the hardware rechromed.  To
get the best results I took everything apart as much as I could.  When it
came time to put things back together I had a little problem with the pins
that hold the vent window latches together.  I think I used a small nail or
maybe some welding rod, but whatever I used has fallen out.  In the photo
below I have circle the parts that need to be pinned together.

So my question is, what is the "right" way to do this.  Like I said, I
tried something like a nail or welding rod but whenever I tried to peen
over the ends, the pin would buckle in the middle.  I tried using a press
and tapping with a small hammer.  But there must be a right way to do this.

Help,
Joe Brown
