How Would Rivets Remove on Trailer to Install the Redline Roof Vent # RV-626-062 In Place of it

Question:

Replacement Exterior Pop-Up Roof Vent - Aluminum - 13-1/2inch x 8 Item # RV-626-062 is the item that I need to replace my current trailer vents. However I cant not get my current vents removed, they are not attached with screws or a screw type object that I can remove - they look like screws or pegs with a hole in the middle think of a donut any idea how to remove the current vents so that I can install the new ones? Thank you

What you described are rivets. They have to be drilled out as they don't have a nut or screw that unthreads.

You want to find a drill bit thats about half the diameter of the rivet and then drill it through the rivet to pop it off.
