    Those holes looks bigger than 25/64" == 0.390625 inches... Why would you drill all 4 that size if the first one was fucked up?

    LOL, I'd love to seem him get the wings spread in there too. Look at how shallow the top curved section is on the roof rail channel.

    So just because something is intended for one project means you cant utilize it for something else?

    I dont need to post the result because I am not the one that messed up.

    OP posted his problem, I posted a possible solution.

    I forgot this is Tacomaworld though, full of douche bros. Ill move along.

    Not everyone can use their tools properly...sometimes a hole is just "a hole".

    No I mean like literally it only gets holding power because it sinks into the rear of the drywall and it is then some sort of "nut" for a fastener.

    Sheet metal doesn't allow bite, and you'd twist the pot metal hinge right the fuck off.
