Has anyone installed the stock, early foglights in a 75/76 backdated with the early, chrome bumpers?
I can locate where the hole goes in the front panel to mount them, but there is no way (that I can find) to get behind the panel in that location with a nut to secure the bolt. Thanks. |

Ok, so I found it. Will wonders ever cease...
 It's placed between the Sert and the bolt, the side with the groove up against the Sert, the Sert goes in the hole, the bolt is tightened and this is held in place with another wrench to keep it and the Sert from spinning. Then the Sert mushrooms up against the back of the hole. Once locked in place, the bolt is removed, the little tool is removed, and the bolt goes back into the Sert. Be sure to drill the appropriate sized hole for the nutsert, it should be just tight enough that the Sert doesn't spin at all when placed in there and is actually subject to an interference fit. This is to ensure is that the tool will work properly, and once that Nutsert is locked into place, it's pretty permanent. HTH, Joe |
