[QUOTE="LonLB, post: 184675, member: 4391"] The rivets in the splash well are 3/16 x 1/4" grip. I used new foam/rubber seals between each panel because that is what they did from the factory. So I replaced it with new. That added to the needed grip length. You want to use all aluminum rivets. There are holes in the transom that will probably be below the water line. They are drilled for bolts, that I removed when removing the boards. I'll replace the bolts, and use plenty of 3M 5200 There are some holes that one of the previous owners drilled for the transducer. I'll probably just use regular pop rivets here. And plenty of 5200. 5200 on the outside of the rivet too. I don't mind putting the 5200 around the outside of the rivet, since I'll be covering that area up anyway, with a sheet of plastic to mount transducers to in the future. The metal trim that is on the outside that accepts the rubber trim.....I'm going to drill out those solid rivets, put the trim on the inside so you can't see it (for strength) and put new solid rivets in. I nothing about these like the stock rivets. There is a guy here in MI that has the tools and know how to install them so I was planning to contact him when it's that time. [/QUOTE]
