Any good competent workshop in Pune who can deal with rivets? And of course do a good job of repairing the dented Skoda door?
Chris fix pop rivet removal tool install#
All those who upgrade their speakers in India: how do they remove the existing speakers? Chisel out the rivets damaging the door trim/plastic housing in the process? And how do they install new speakers? Rivets or no?Ĥ. Rivets versus screws versus nut/bolts: what's better? Is there any real advantage of using rivets over screws? Is it worth sticking to rivets?ģ. What is the right way to remove and install a rivet?Ģ. I put the door trim in the boot and drove out.ġ. I got frustrated, asked them to search for some guy/workshop who can remove and install rivets with proper tools and then call me. They: sir, factory mein machine hota hai (Sir, factory has a rivet gun or something like that)
Me: kuch to hota hoga (there must be some way) - while googling away to glory on my cell phone They: Sir, baad mein "ribit" nahin baithega, screw marna padega (Sir, rivets can't be installed, we will screw it all) Me: Why? There must be some way, and how will you fit it all back? They: Aisa hi hota hai sir, "ribit" ko hathoda mar kar katna padta hai (this is how it's done, sir, rivets have to be cut by force) They were going to cut the rivets using a chisel and a hammer when I stopped them. This is some intermediate metal sheet that's riveted. They removed the door trim and then this is how it looked: But I told them that I will stand there all day and watch them doing it. I was told this is the standard way, so I agreed. They told me they will remove the door trim, try to put their hands in and hammer out the dent. One workshop looked reasonable and gave me an estimate of 7K. Don't want to claim insurance and don't want to take it to the Skoda service center for obvious reasons. I have been exploring competent and reasonable workshops in Pune to get this repaired. My 4.5 years old Laura TSi received a dent on the front left door and the running board.
