Once the rivet is in place, secure the rivet by kust pushing down until the pin is in the rivet.
I did remove the whole entire rivet assembly. I wasn't able to get then back in like they came out,in one piece. I just inserted the pieces like that for now because it's a tighter fit then nothing in those spots at all.
