Default rivet on hood scoop dimentions needed

How wide is the lip around the rivet on hood scoop for the 66 SC cars? And also. What size are the rivet heads supposed to be? Thanks

With fiberglass cobras, many use SS buttonhead screws instead of rivets. That way you can tighten them up just enough to not do any damage to the glass.
