i was thinking of putting studs where the bolts go, about an inch or so longer than the bolts. then maybe i can get the cover started on all studs and drive it home. what will happen to the threads, and if i can get a nut started, there'll be about 7/8" of stud showing. i gotta find some brackets for a wire hugging the cover, maybe that could be of these studs? just tossing some ideas out here.
