Toolbox re-install question?

A while back I removed the toolbox from my Lightning and cut those cute little bolts that held it in. What are my options at this point for getting the tool box back in and mounted?

I need the truck back to stock and this is one of the last things I have to do.

Thanks

John

Drill from the top. Run a bolt through and use a nut underneath...
Preferably stainless.

John,
If you have a welder available I would just tack on a couple studs the same size as you cut off. It would look all factory that way with the nuts on top holding the toolbox down.
How have you been, I haven't talked with you in a while, Will was born on 4/5/02 and is a great baby..
Bill

Oh, let's not get too far off-topic. Doug is HOT today.

Congrats, man...

I would just use some new screws to hold the box to the floor and call it a day, drill threw the floor.

Use a few self tapping screws. It would take all of 30 seconds.

You sound like an A/C man too.
