Lots of choices, but pricey. I'm not sure that I want to drill a bunch of holes under my car to mount the back side of Dzuz fastener; rather use existing bolts if possible. I'm too new to post links on this forum, but do a search on Dzuz fasteners.

Are you sure. I think you can post pictures after five posts. I don't know any limitation on posting links.

At the time, I didn't have 5 posts, so I have been active since then; now I can!
