Grill screw holes stripped and Need Hood insert Bell Nuts

[rog_allen]

Hey guys what have you done or what would you suggest ,? We are fitting my grill back in and a couple screw holes are slightly stripped ... do i dare just put some type super glue on threads and call it good ? they do grab a little ....... Im scared if I put next size bigger screw in it may split plastic

Also Im looking for the bell nuts that hold hood inserts on, anyone have a set or a web address to where I can buy them ?
Or does any one have a picture they cold post of the bell nuts ? mainly the end ones
Thank you

Rog

this is what you need
4 of each
what part of the grille is stripped?
some of it is screwed into plastic pieces that are on the grille brackets
and the center grille should have 4 metal inserts
at the end of each screw hole.
they are often missing and hard to find.

If you have stripped plastic holes.... see if you can find a syringe & needle, mix up some 2-component clear epoxy for plastic, mix it quick (sets up fast) and inject it into plastic holes. After a couple days to make sure it's completely cured, you can re-drill a hole in the epoxy and let your screws re-tap it for you, just like when the grill was new.
