Well, I will have to beg to differ........the bottoms on my '99 LT are pressed in. I finally got them out and the new ones pressed in. The tops are riveted in and were fairly easy to get out with the aid of an air chisel. I broke the c-clamp press that I bought at Harbour Freight. I had to go and rent one from Advanced. That made all the difference.
