If you use rivets make sure you use the backing washers or the rivets that spread out like an anchor bolt. A rivet will eventually pull out of the plastic if you don't. ^^^^^THIS^^^^^ Guys, read this again if you're new to rigging. If you can't get to the backside of your installation, you should use well nuts. Using a rivet in plastic without a steel washer behind it is a guaranteed failure if you put any stress on it. Don knows what he's talking about.
