Led light bar help
What rig are you mounting it on?
Clearance lights, mirrors etc are generally attached with 'Rivet Nuts', Blind Rivet Nuts, or some call anchor nuts..
Simply drill the correct size hole, install the mandrill (1/4" or? ) of choice in to the guns nose, select the correct die/cap, and thread the Rivet Nut onto the guns mandrill.. Insert it in the drilled hole, and a hardy squeeze on the gun sets the nut. The threaded nuts barrel is ribbed on the OD and expands outward for bite into the sheet steel, collapses as it forms a nut on the underside pulling it tight against the under surface..
I just pulled this set off the net,, guns and rivet nut kits or just nut sets prices vary.. A quality gun is a good bet to set the nuts tight.. Drilling the hole for a snug fit on the nut as it goes in, a must.. Normally the kits will come with a drill sizing index.. They make Rivet nuts for thick and thin metals..
