What's your thoughts guys ?

ALL DIRECTIONS is important cos twisting of the radiator support panel occurs when u enter an uphill driveway at an angle (one front wheel up to bump). This twist will also tear a radiator apart.

Well Nuts are good but painful to hold the rubber from turning, gripping with MULTIGRIPS will tear the brass insert from the rubber. Lube the thread and don't over tighten.
My suggestion would be wiring grommets and fender washers in top holes with Nyloc nuts barely tight...... and a rubber support pad in a bottom channel.

Since I can easily install a Nylock nut on the back side of the well nut it will be very easy to install and remove if needed. All I would need to do is remove the grill.
