    I have been wanting to do this but so far cant bring myself to drill into the metal. And the plastic I feel like wouldnt be secure enough. I will probably do it once I get a cool opener

    I put a fender washer on the inside just to sturdy it up and sealed the hole with gray rtv with a bit on the threads for loctite action. It is premanent part of the truck now.
