Default 58 - Wiring clips on front support brace question

The wiring clips that are supposed to be riveted to the riveted brackets for the front brace are missing. The brackets are in and riveted, but no clips are attached.
Other than using tie-wraps...anyone else have some creative ideas?

I was thinking of maybe just drilling into the bracket and using a sheet metal screw but before I did that, just thought I'd see what others have done.

I am just doing the same thing right now. I plan on using a two part epoxy to glue the clips onto the fiberglass in the groove right above the stock location.

Norm...here is a picture showing the wiring clip.

Bush...I like that idea. Some JB weld or POR should hold it.
