Rivet? Removal help
« on: August 02, 2013, 11:29:41 AM »
I am trying to replace the wheel on my carry on luggage but I have no idea how to get the old wheel off.
This is one side
This is the other side
If anyone can help me figure out how to remove them I would appreciate it. TIA.

Hard to tell from the pics but if it is a rivet you get it off by drilling straight through it. is the bottom black part painted metal or plastic?
