    M35A3 underhood insulation rivets - size?

    How do you plan on re-coating the insulation? The coating on my hood and side panels is coming off too, little by little.

    M35A3 underhood insulation rivets - size?

    I'd get a single $1 rivet if you can and measure that to figure out a common rivet to use. I saw a pack of 10 on EBay for $10 after a quick look. It might be a small additional price to pay to get your job done.
