You may have been better to put the spring latches on the cover, not on the unit. When you run it with the cover off, the loose springs will scratch the paint on the top.

@ 13:48 the word you were looking for was "riveting." My first job as the lube tech/accessory installer for the local Toyota dealer involved lots of drilling holes in brand new FourRunners and Land Crushers for threaded rivets to mount roof racks, air foils and wind deflectors. Measure 30 times, rivet once.
