Seems VANs left this open to interpretation because I see no instruction for flush rivetting the k1100 nut plate to the E-615PP.
It appears people have used either countersink or dimple of the E-615PP. Problem is dimpling means you then have to play with the k1100 to allow the dimple to set in
BUT
if you countersink it seems you may end up with an enlarged hole.
Given this is just for a cover plate attach point doesn't matter much but I am definitely leaning to countersink because I don't want to touch the k1100 if I can avoid it. All the strain should be on the k1100 so setting a rivet is not for strength but just to set in position, yes?
Is there a best practice?
Thanks All
