Hollow Copper Rivet Set – 6mm

Complete your classic Porsche lighting restoration with this OE Match Hollow Copper Rivet Set. This set contains four 6mm hollow copper rivets used to install or replace front and rear light housing lenses while maintaining an authentic factory appearance.

Fits:
  • Porsche 911 1965-1968 2.0L / 912 SWB (F)


These small but essential fasteners secure the lens to the light housing, ensuring a firm installation while preserving the correct period detail. During restoration, original rivets are often damaged during removal, corroded through age or missing altogether, making replacement essential when fitting new or refurbished light lenses.

Manufactured from high-quality copper, these hollow rivets offer excellent corrosion resistance and are designed to provide the correct fit for classic Porsche lighting assemblies.

Each set contains four 6mm hollow copper rivets. Two rivets are required per light lens.

What Do the Hollow Copper Rivets Do?

The hollow copper rivets securely fasten the front or rear light lens to the lamp housing.

Their primary functions include:

  • Securing light lenses to the housing.
  • Maintaining correct lens alignment.
  • Providing a durable permanent fixing.
  • Preserving the original appearance of the light assembly.
  • Supporting a secure weather-resistant installation.
  • Completing a professional-quality restoration.

Although small, these rivets are an important finishing detail when restoring classic Porsche lighting.

Why Replace the Light Lens Rivets?

Original rivets are typically removed whenever a light lens is replaced and cannot usually be reused.

Common reasons for replacement include:

  • Corroded original rivets.
  • Rivets damaged during removal.
  • Missing fasteners.
  • Loose or poorly secured lenses.
  • Restoration of front or rear light assemblies.
  • Installing new indicator or tail light lenses.
  • Completing a concours-quality restoration.

Replacing the rivets ensures the lens is securely mounted while maintaining an authentic factory finish.
