Oem diffuser rivet?
Hi all,
I tried removing the oem diffuser today and ran into a little trouble. I'm unsure what driver or perhaps rivet holds onto the diffuser on both ends. Any help? Thanks.

Hey there. I had the same trouble as you and could not figure out what driver head it was either.
What I did though (recommended by others who also did this in order to remove the diffuser), was to use a knife and slice through the plastic piece surrounding that rivot. Basicallty make a cut like this / O \ so the rivot can be removed.
Also, there will be hooks in the center portion of the diffuser. You have to unhook it in order to remove the diffuser. Use a flashlight and you will see.
