The rivet broke off of my headlight motor arm. How can i fix this? I cant find it so im not even entirely sure it is a rivet.
The rivet is on the end of the shaft at the top of this picture.

You mean that little pin sticking out on the very end of the arm? Isn't that just held on with a clip of some sort? Look at the motor on the opposite side and see what's holding it on. If it's one of those weird clips, you may be able to find it at the auto parts store by matching it to the good one on the other side.
One side note, I wanted to let you know that you have the bolts that hold the motor to the car in... correctly! I'm just commenting on that cause so many people flip the bolts around and wonder why the arms smack against the bolt ends. Not to mention, they were backwards on my car causing all sorts of banging, noises and door movement failure.
