Tilting window

just wondering if anyone can tell me if I can use nuts and bolts insted of rivets to hold my window glass to the regulator? As it is now the window tilts forward when I put it up causing an air leak at the back.
Thanks,
Roy

sorry, it's a 94 extended cab STX power window, every thing works good except for the tilting, no rattle or anything just the air noise, but I get a visable gap at the to rear of window. I talk to ford dealer and bought the part they said I need, when i went to put it in I seen 2 rivets that hold the glass to it. I don't have a rivet gun big enough for that size rivets. I just was wondering if I can get away with using nut and blts in there insted of the rivets.
Thanks,
Roy
