No rivets, its a bolt on. The hardest part is reaching the bolts that attached the window to the regulator if the window is stuck all the way up. I managed to squeeze my arm in the door and reach the bolts. I have heard of others cutting the cables that raise and lower the track and sliding it down but that didn't work for me. I did think about cutting the old track in half with a die grinder but I got to the bolts. Took me about an hour total. This site helped alot.
