The 'E' Type Forum

Has anyone been as daft as I feel taking my wiper arms apart, a/ because they are the 1961 originals and b/ because they are irreplaceable, to get the zinc pivots rechromed? Problem is where would you source the 1/8" stainless rivets to reassemble them, and then how would you actually do it without causing damage? Maybe someone figured a work around? Thanks for your help!

There’s a place in the U.S. that sells every rivet imaginable...www.hansonrivet.com

Good luck!

Hi Paul....i was after some hard to find stainless rivets recently here in the uk.....this company was great and even just sent me a few free of charge.....re how to fit you will need some type of tooling.....chat with them they may be able to help....Steve http://www.sapphireproducts.co.uk/solid.htm

Hi Paul,

I have a similar problem. I thought of actually remaking them.

If you do not find them, we might team up :-).

Let me know,
