I drilled holes and used the push pins that came with the pod.

I used a Dremel with a drilling bit and just went low RPMs. High RPMS could melt the plastic.

I always used the black "door trim" screws in the HELP section at autozone/pep boys. They look just like the screws that hold your door handle bezel in place...
