Re: Nuts at bottom edge of door for door panel attachment?

What works even better and cheaper are those square nylon/plastic license plate fasteners.

You simply push the plastic "nuts" into the square hole. Then you "tap" them with whatever screw you are using to fasten the door panels with. I prefer stainless 1/4-20 oval head with trim washer.

Best thing is the plastic nut and metal screws won't rust together ever again.
