Help and advice needed from the BC massive..

I bought a 2U unit for my Mesa MPulse but the holes don't line up. I don't expect the amp to ever have to come out so I only need the screws to hold long enough to screw the bolts in.

My first move was to drill the holes in the Ali moulding on the case and tried to fix the steel screws to the back of moulding.

 

Needless to say, the UHU didn't hold. TBH I didn't really expect it to, just being hopeful.

My next attempt was to use some JB Kwikweld.

I covered the nuts, pulled them onto the moulding by using the screws and left it overnight. Came back to it this morning, took the screws out and in doing so dislodged the nuts. Aaaah!!

My next thought is to glue some rubber to the nuts, then glue these to the Ali moulding.

Anybody have a better suggestion??
