They're pop rivets - mine too. I'm guessing all of them are because the label is added when the cab is mounted - but this is purely conjecture on my part.out of curiosity, what kind rivets are holding your vin tag on?

Maybe they are "rosette" rivets but, mine look the same (see pictures above). It sounds like too much of a coincidence to me.GM used rosette rivits so curious if his may have been changed out
Rosette rivets for reference.. from my '93.Smooth not rosette!
Uh oh. The cab may have been replaced due to a restoration or a rebuild.Rosette rivets for reference.. from my '93.

Sir, I'd start looking for those alternate locations of the partial VIN on your frame and compare to your dash tag.

I guess I need to research mine too.Sir, I'd start looking for those alternate locations of the partial VIN on your frame and compare to your dash tag.
Apparently, and I haven't researched the subject fully - but from trusted sources, all GM plants used the rosette rivets for the VIN tag since 1965. Quote from Tom (427SS65; a now-deceased moderator from Chevytalk): "In 1965, the Federal government required US manufacturers to use rosette rivets. They went one step further in 1969 by making the VIN tags up on the driver's side of the dash."I guess I need to research mine too.
