Glovebox emblem mounting question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This is my 1968 C50 glove box door. It has no holes on the backside of the inner panel to allow for nuts or retaining clips. I removed the door completely thinking there may be some secret entrance but to no avail. While I had the glove box door off I could hear the original emblem retaining nuts rolling around in there. Currently my thought is to use some sort of epoxy putty and blob it on the emblem tabs and press it in. Of course there’s always double sided tape too, but it got me to wondering, what would you do if you were aiming for a concours restoration? Peel back the pinch fold and separate the door halves?
