We now have a tool to send with our wicker bill for a small charge. You can also make yourself.

video uploads are easy Just use {u2b} you tube letters here {/u2b} use brackets [] instead of the {}.

I ended up getting this one from Amazon, much better. Also came with some different size rivets which allowed me to make adjustments to get a better estimate of the compression needed so It would compress the rivet in one stroke. It did not come with a plastic case. Hit or miss with Chinese quality. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

I bought the same one as Chip4. It worked well, you just have to be careful not to screw the shaft too far into the rivnut. You can deform the spoiler if you collapse the rivnut too much. This happened on my first rivnut but I quickly adjusted and the rest went fine.

What material are the stock rivnuts? Aluminum? Stainless? Cadmium zinc?

The rivnut is magnetic so it wouldnt be aluminum. Some sort of special steel. Trying to find a replacement, they are not standard M8 rivnuts. Have taken to numerous auto body and hardware stores and cannot find them.
