I have a 73 Chally. I have three studs for the clips coming down the pillar. There is one near the vinyl fold as you turn the corner on mine.

Not sure either the screw or the rivet can be successfully installed at the proper angle with the glass in place. Especially if there is no hole there yet.

If you try to install clips after the windshield is installed, be prepared to buy another windshield. I did.

Tape on outside.3 on each side.6 across the top. drill 1/16" hole then enlarge to 1/8". Use a small spacer in the channel to protect windshield and hold starting point. or drill a hole in a stick . Popsicle sticks or a piece of metal to hold you position. Use small needle nose to turn screw in.It's a pisser but it can be done.
Think you way out of this problem!
