What rivets should I use to install a Fastrax M10? I have to attach the titanium plate to the inside of the tunnel and I need to use the right rivets. The suspension is used so I didn't get any with it.

Steel, aluminum, stainless???

What size and what style????

Any help would be appreciated.

OFT is temp. closed. I tried several times to get a response from them and nothing.

I finally got some from "Ding" over on Totallyamaha. They are multigrips powdercoated black. Look to be nice and strong rivets. Great guy to do business with and at least he responses to messages.
