I bought some fiber optic cable (not the type for data usage...) and made a make-shift light pipe for the 4 screws I need to drill holes for. Using a very bright LED flashlight....
I was able to shine light through the rivnuts to locate the where the holes need to be. :-) Worked as planned.
Before finalizing the locations I made sure that the space around the wheel was even. I was going to make it perfectly level with the ground, but that made it a bit tight around the wheel in the back, so I tilted it a bit to make it even spacing.
Pilot holes drilled and you can now see the light shining through. I want to make sure I ream out the holes in exactly the right place so first I will do something so I can locate the hole centers (maybe put in flat head screws and put the cover on).
I drilled out the other mounting hole for the ground block and put in a M4 rivnut. Here it's screwed in place.
