FAQs
What vehicles is this push rivet stud compatible with?
This rivet stud is specifically designed as a replacement for VW OEM part number 3B0867333 and is generally suitable for Volkswagen vehicles. It can also be used for general automotive applications if the hole size and requirements match.
What is the size of the hole required for installation?
The Connect 36626 Push Rivet Stud requires a hole size of 5.5mm for proper fitment.
How many rivets are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 push rivet studs.
What material are these rivets made of?
The rivets are manufactured from durable nylon plastic.
Can these be used for purposes other than trim clips?
Yes, they can be used for any general automotive application where a 5.5mm push-fit fastener made of plastic is suitable for securing components.
Are these rivets reusable?
These are designed as single-use fasteners. While they can sometimes be removed and reinserted, it is best practice to use new rivets for a secure fit, as the expanding mechanism may be compromised after removal.
Troubleshooting
Rivet will not insert
Ensure the hole size is exactly 5.5mm. If the hole is too small, it may need to be carefully enlarged. If the hole is too large, the rivet will not grip.
Rivet does not secure the panel
Confirm the rivet has been fully pushed in to expand its base. Check that the corresponding mounting hole in the vehicle body is intact and not damaged.
Rivet breaks during installation
Apply firm, steady pressure. Excessive force or attempting to force the rivet into an incorrectly sized hole can cause breakage. Use a new rivet.

- Align the trim panel with the corresponding mounting point on the vehicle.
