I have a smashed SnapButton on the metal portion of the windshield. It
appears to be riveted on because there is no screw head. My question is
how do you remove it i.e. does it need drilled out or does it just pop
off. I also need to know how does the replacement get install i.e is there
a speacial riveting tool or will the screw on type work in the hole that
is already there. I would like the instructions because I haven't found
any info on the internet. I find the buttons but not the instructions.

Thanks for your help


Try to cut the head off.

I would then replacing it using the screw in type. If the hole is too big
plug it with a plastic anchor insert trimmed to fit, then screw the snap
into that.
