Solid rivets, or just pop rivets? If pop rivets, theres plenty available, they're really common in all sizes..

5mm is the normal size for most things. Try eBay if not spray them your self leave for a week then use. Worked 80% of the time for me.

Try "bitsforlandys" on eBay, he does all types of rivets for Land Rovers, mostly series stuff, but I'm sure he will have what your looking for. 80" 80" 86" 88" 90"

Wanted, Forward Control Anything considered.

Your local fastener supply company should stock whatever size, length, type [blind or open] pop rivet you require. You'll be asking about the tool next Wink Steve.
