[Diy_efi] OT : mounting fastners

[Ernest Buckler]

  ?" mounting hole should be about a 3/8" rivnut. Readily available and not too difficult to install. My standard Rivnut tool goes to 3/8

  Thanks, Jim, had no idea.  Had never seen Rivnuts over 5/16, and a hand-operated setter was a real pisser to pull at that size. 



  The question still remains about what the original writer intends to do with these holes - fill them to block them off, or use them to mt the console he briefly mentions.  If there's no access to the outside, what's the problem anyway, eh?

  Top reply: Depends on what you want to do with these holes?  Merely plug them up for water reasons?  Or attach something in those locations?  Rivnuts in 1/2" size are gonna be rare and hard to install.  Epoxy sounds like the best cheap answer so far.

    Hello all, got a question about mounting to the floor pan. Ive a new console to mount to the floor of the car... there are 2 holes - 1/2" diameter already in the floor pan does anyone know a way to put a fastner in there without getting to the back side... its kind of a pocket in the body floor.
