Sounds like you need original parts. Have you checked with Kurt Kelsey in Iowa? Check under "Members" and then "Member Discounts." Kurt is probably the largest dealer in original Pontiac parts.

For OEM items try Then & Now in MA (http://www.maritimedragracing.com/then_and_now_automotive___se.htm) or perhaps Northwestern Auto Parts in Grand Rapids, MI (northwesternautosupply.com)

It might be possible that someone has a rivet in item of the right size. It is obviously a difficult find as the "normal" replacements were grind out the rivets and bolt in items.
