I have a Mark 5 Mini and need to refurb my leaking opening rear quarter light windows (non-piano hinge type), but before I start...

 

Presumably the circular chrome caps pull off the screws holding the frame together around the 'hinge' and catch areas?

 

Does anyone know where I can get new screws and caps, or the part numbers, please?

The dome caps are rivet heads as the hinges and catches are riveted on, the only screw is the tiny one holding the frame together. Don’t lose it. I’ve Never been able to find the correct rivets but bifurcated ones with a slightly larger domed head but they don’t overhang the frame. EBay item no 223682198005.

Damn! I thought this would be an easy job for a simpleton with just a screwdriver and a razor blade after seeing a youtube video taking apart a frame with the piano hinge. Thanks for putting me straight.
