Hello ,
I would like to remove the windscreen cowl cover , But I have difficult to release the plastic expansion rivet .
I tried everything but it won't go out .
Maybe someone has an idea ??

Pry up the rivet with a metal tack removal tool.

How to find lost pop rivets
1) First you must lose a pop rivet. Author's method is to take off engine cover while slightly intoxicated so as to "look at the turbo piping".
2) Once you've determined the pop rivet to not have fallen through to the ground and not to be visible from the top of the engine bay, go back and strategize (possibly waiting until next day to fully sober, if applicable).
3) Crawl under car and reach around over the engine bay cover, blindly groping for pop rivet. If pop rivet found, go to step 11.
4) Remove engine oil filter cover, blindly grope around in new hole. If pop rivet found, go to step 11.
5) Back out onto sloped driveway.
6) Place car into reverse
7) Accelerate backwards, brake suddenly
8) Place car into drive
9) Accelerate forwards, brake suddenly
10) Get out of car and check for fallen pop rivet. If none found, go to step 6.
11) Return car to parking spot and replace all covers and pop rivets
12) DO NOT drop a pop rivet while doing this. If you do so, return to step 2.
