Dude! This worked on my Toyota Matrix! The left bolt broke off evenly/flush against the gate. I ran up to Ace and grabbed some JB Weld. I didn't have to shear off the ends, I just put a large nut behind the plate and screwed into the new one to fill the gap! Saved me a lot of hassle and time! Thanks!

What a great start to the video… why finish it in the dark?

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

I was more concerned about getting the job done than the video itself :(

Don’t let the negative comments get you down. I think it’s an excellent idea and I’m actually trying it right now.

[@mcquinnbelnap3108]

Seriously. People criticizing the guy for having a solution in the first place and being willing to share it. If they don’t like the solution, just click another link!

OR .. pop the plastic off on the inside of the hatch and remove the bolt from the other side. There is literally like 1/2" of bolt sticking through for you to grab

[@brentmip]

Not on my car. The screw is flush on that side too unfortunately

[@bruceami]

Excellent info even if just for what the proper bolts are.

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

Thank you Bruce!

Could have opened the trunk door and got access to those broken screws from the inside after removing the door panel

[@AirplaneFreak]

What I do would be to grab some of those stainless steel rivet nuts, mushroom them down in a vise, and then hammer them in the back. Of course you have to get rid of the rusty old one first.

[@danbarry7052]

dude, in the dark ! really ! why

[@gotaigo]

very smart

[@Cory714]

What without a angle grinder

[@romahome007]

i mean i get what your doing, but when i put new plates on my car last week i just used 2 self tappers with screw covers and screwed in to the bodywork.

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

Thought about it but theres a lot of stuff inside the door that I dont want to damage. and dont want the door to rust out in the next few years

[@pullmyfinger6932]

There are several ways this could have been done properly -- this is probably the dumbest solution imaginable.

[@FirstLast-jf1ed]

Damn ad!

[@tbuzz285]

Yes, everyone has a grinder and a full workshop. That's why this says "easy" right?

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

Hi Kim. I said you could also use a file, You can use vise grips to hold something too. And you can use a hacksaw to cut the bolt. or just buy shorter ones

[@ThePlaceAndTime]

From the thumbnail I thought this was an idubbbz video

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

lmaoo

[@monkmelodies-relaxmusic2339]

Who says iyts easy

[@melanciafan]

Thanks for sharing but that was NOT simple. It will be my last resort.

[@granjuas]

You used like 15 different tools to do this. It ain’t easy, punk.

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

use a hack saw and a file and glue. thats 3 things. And a screwdriver. Its been a while since I made the video but I thought I even said that in the video.
