dougs, you have to get a cut off wheel and cut the peened over portion on the outside, then 1/8"punch to knock it out outside to in.
With the replacement nos ones George found, they would have a slight interference fit and would have to be put in from the inside, then some how retained in place then peened over. Anyone have any ideas how one would do that without knocking it back out?
BTW, thank you all for your input, much appreciated.
