The visor bkts were loose on my 'b . Heres what I done 4 years ago to sort
it , still ok!
1. get assistant
2. get assistant to hold block of wood tightly against the outside of the
w/s frame, ie infront of the rivet
3. take one centre punch, and hammer and punch , gently the centre of the
rivet until it tightens!
