[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 465388, member: 9169"] I secured my aluminum deck with closed end blind rivets. Easy enough to drill out if needed, and plenty strong. I used rivnuts for a few different applications (trolling motor mount, light bar mount) and have had a few that worked loose. Once they do that, they'll just spin and spin and are a huge pain to get out without destroying the original hole. I won't use rivnuts for anything again because of that. [/QUOTE]
