TR3 Dzus Fastener Tip
In order to install the grommet for the Dzus fastener in the hood or bonnet of my Triumph TR3, I successfully used the above-illustrated method that I devised. This method worked beautifully and is far less likely to damage the surrounding paint than other recommended methods that involve using a hammer to flare the grommet. One additional comment though, between steps 4 and 5, a tapered rod, such as a drift pin, may have to be used to enlarge the hole slightly to allow the Dzus fastener to pass through.
