Default window regulator attach point

I am in the middle of replacing my front drivers regulator. I have the window frame out of the car, and ready to remove the old regulator from the window frame.

The old regulator appears to be pop-riveted to the frame. I could drill out the old rivets, but then how do I attach the new regulator to the frame? There is no hardware with the new one.

Any thoughts here?

Cheers - Gregor.

I use lock nuts and bolts to attach it after grinding the heads off the rivits

Hey,
Thanx for all the advice. In the end I put new clips on. I may keep the full regulator since I struggled to find it (my 2001 VIN is greater than the cut off of 160922).

Cheers - Gregor
