Hi All,

Does anyone know the pop rivet size used for fixing the under bonnet rubber seals to the mud gaurds?

Thanks

I used 1/8" diameter when I redid mine. I believe the length was 1/4", but less sure about that.

Thanks for the response Steve. Not sure how critical the size actually is.

Don't think it matters too much? Mine seemed to vary anyway, so I just used ones that looked about the same

Thanks Malcom - I think I’ll do the same and guestimate!
