I used #6 speednuts from autozone and #8 screws from home depot, so i didnt have to drill anything, was pretty easy, I used tape to hold the speed nuts in place.

I used the its and the metal piece that the factory screws screwed in to. I just used longer screws that were the same thread pitch. Worked out great and it didn't take any time to do. I can't remember the size of the screws but I can check this weekend. I still have a couple extra in the package
