I did something similar on mu '70 Cutlass prior to MCACN this past fall. The NOS sill plates didn't have the rivets.
I put a piece of tape over the front of the Fisher Body tag on my factory plates since the rivet is so tiny and I didn't want to risk losing it. I took a grinding wheel to the back side of the plate to get the rivet loose. Pulled the rivet out and kept it in a safe spot until I drilled a hole in the NOS plates. The smallest dab of super glue and some tweezers helped get the factory rivet in to the NOS plates.

Finish plate
This is an NOS sill plate with the factory rivet removed from the original plates and installed in the NOS plate.
