I've see this eference to putting in a couple of pop rivets but I'm having
trouble seeing this.  I'm visualizing pop rivets from the outside of the
plastic through the metal inserts.  But a pop rivet is going to have a hole
all the way through the center that may or may not be sealed.  So what am I
missing? A type of rivet that I'm not familiar with or what?
BTW, I'm not being critical, just not able to see the pop rivets in there
without the possibility of leaks.
