Thats a pretty good idea.
This is my current mounting idea now. The picture is a cross section of the grill area. The thought is to use a couple tapered wooden blocks to locate the grill block on the grill. These would be glassed to the back of the grill block. I could screw Sven's eye hooks into the back of the blocks and run a rubber band around the grill slat to hold it in or something. The cloth / rubber covering just protects the paint.
