Subject: MGB LE Sun Screen Replacement Help
The Sun Visor Anchor and the Sun Visor Pivot Bracket on the 1980 MGB LE are
held in place by Pop Riots attached to the top of the inside windshield
frame. The Sun Visor Pivot Brackets are loose and need to either be tightened
or have new pop rivets. I have ordered new Sun Visor Anchors from MOSS and
they need to be installed.
What is the recommended installation procedure? Is it save to drill out the
old pop rivets? What is the correct diameter and length of the replacement
pop rivets? How about rust? Are there better replacement rivets available
that will nor rust?
