AD window winder mechanism

I've managed to get hold of the new part that the handle fixes to. I'm not sure what it's called. It's held in place by 3 or 4 rivets that I can drill out. Fitting that e new one with the rivets provided what's the best way/tools to use to squash the rivets? Thanks

Re: AD window winder mechanism

Yeah looks like it's right. Tried to refit the whole mechanism into the door today, I wedged the glass in the fully up position when I removed it so left it in that position. I've got everything in place except I can only get one of the three bolts in place on the middle section. Any tips for refitting these? Thanks
