While I was replacing the top 2 rivets, I also replaced one of the bottom rivets that hold the swivel post to the vent window. While the rivet fit fine, It needed to be hammered to bend the inside & outside edges of the rivet so that it didn't try to catch on the aluminum door sil. Just for good measure, I filed down the center of the rivet slightly.

I only used one rivet on the post because rust desolved half of it :) There was no rivet in the remaining hole.

It all works like it should, except the rubber on the bottom could use a little bit of work.
