Wing Vent Top Hinge Broken

The top hinge tab on my wing window is broken. It is split where the rivet goes. Is there any way to repair this without replacing the whole frame? The picture attached is not from my truck, but I've circled the hinge I'm referring to.

Replacement rivets are available. It may be difficult to assemble with it on the truck.

That hinge plate is attached to the main frame with 2 rivets. The best fix would be to remove the vent and replace the pivot plate.

Thanks!

Am I permitted to ask who sells just the pivot plate?
