are you asking what to use to pop them into the vertical division bar and door? I recall using a narrow piece of wood and a hammer. some of the rivets on the fuzzies were larger than the hole in the door so i had to drill the door hole a little

Hey Gregg, Yea I was wondering what to use to install the rubber and brackets to the new division bar channel. My kit is a rebuild kit and I have to transfer the old brackets to the new channel, and rivet the new rubber to the division bar with I think are brads. Thought they were pop rivets but their not. :help:

Thanks Gregg The threads you sent are very helpful. I think I got it figured out now with the help of a vise, C-clamp, hammer ,punch. :lol: Ive installed one of the brackets that attach the division bar to the door seem to work pretty good. Thanks again.

i ordered a kit like that too, but didn't want to deal with moving the old brackets over to the new division bar, so i returned it and bought the full kit
