Can somebody tell me whether A6 rivets also need to have a domed head?

Don't know if they "have" to, but I have a number of A6's in my airframe. I hollowed out a rivet head to make the domed rivets for them just like the A4's and A5's.

I used A6's in my upper spar caps, and at the canopy latch bearing attachments (to the fuselage sides) for the 650 canopy I put on my XL.

Carlos,
If we are talking about the solid rivets as used in the spar they are domed. The drawing calls for:
AN-470-AD-6-14s
I think I heard that the kit will have the fasteners included.. but don't quote me.
Dan
ps
I saw after I posted this that you are plans building an HD, so this may not apply.

Dan, I am talking about the A6 pop rivet.
We use it as a replacement for A5 when the hole is oversize, and in a few spots of the 601-HD wing.

I just spoke to Caleb, and he says A6 are already domed, the riveter modification isn't necessary.
