Ground effects mount

Im putting my ground effects back on the car. But Im running into a problem on the peice that goe son the bottom of each door. I have the self thread cutting nuts for the middle three bolts but I dont know what to use fro the smalled bolts on each end. Went to a junkyard and noiticed theres some wierd nuts on the ends which you cant take off. Went to autozone and bought a variety of sizes for the thread cutting nuts and none of them fit! Any suggestions as to how I can tighten down the ends. Heres a pic of what bolt im talking about

i just used a basic screw from the help section and pulled out that stud. It had very coarse threads.

Re: Ground effects mount

Cool that worked. Knocked out the studs and ran a course bolt through the rear hole and then put a bolt and nut through the front hoel since theres room to slide a nut behind it. Thanks
