Any help on how to fix it would be very much appreciated. Prefer not to replace the entire OEM sliver console...LOL, Yes that would be the easy fix $$$$.
Thanks
Thanks

Anyone have an issue with the latch not closing firmy? I have to push down firmly on my center console to get the latch to fully engage. Any info there would be helpful. (hijack completed)
To OP, I have ordered from suncoast numerous times -- their prices are low, service is great, and if there is any issue, they return it no questions asked.
Cheers,
DS

![Question](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
About the 2 rivets, I placed the thicker part of the rivet to bind the U-bracket and the hinge but the question is, what do i do with the longer nail-looking part? Do I have to bend so that its not in the way to of the cover (arm rest). Please advise.
The manual says "Rivet the hinge plate and the U-bracket together with the supplied pop-rivets. (Figure 3, arrows D)
After riveting, ensure there is no free-play, and that the installation is solid."
My question is what is RIVETING? Hammering it in like a nail or bend it to look like a 'L'. I dont understand.
