I hate those rivets, I just used some small bolts.

Yup, I might just do that. KOI wants $50 for the rivet gun.

Unless your laying on the ground lookin up at the handle,you will never know.And they tuck in there under part of the handle so you wont feel them when you open the door.

Most all body shops have one. I would just take it there and pay a couple bucks to borrow it.

If you do rivet them be sure to wrap the head of the gun with a rag and have someone hold it because it will jump and scratch the paint if not careful
