The pins are riveted over so the heads had to be ground off to get the old glass out. My question is what is the best way to reassemble the bezel now that the pins are too short to peen over. Bye for now Mike

But a better solution would be to gently pry the bezel off with a small screw driver. Leaving the pin heads intact. That way I could have preened the bezel back on. Oh well...live and learn Bye for now Mike
