So I was looking at this photo and thinking to myself...is it really dumb idea or is it the perfect solution, to install a battery support and tray with sheet metal screws or rivets? Stainless steel fasteners obviously.

I figure that not only does it save me the trouble of welding, it would be possible to prepaint the parts completely before install for better corrosion protection and they would be removable for future maintenance if necssary. I am certain that properly sized rivets or screws would be strong enough.

Anyone used screws or rivets on this before?
