To do a really nice job this is the tool you should consider.

We used a similar tool made by BF Goodrich to install - Nut-serts - on our Trans Am car body - this allowed us to remove the fender flares quickly and replace them if they were damaged. This is aircraft quality stuff.

this is what i did to lil red. but drilled starter holes and minus the threadlock . been over 70-80 many times and never had any problems with the roof leaking either.

Personally I'd use riv-nut's and silicone them when I install them, then just run 1/4x20 Stainless bolts in whatever head style you choose.

EDIT- Just noticed the post by Woodyedmiston....same thing as what he posted...

^ Those look like a good idea. Visors normally come with standard sheet metal lags to install the visors. That's how the one on my old Ranger was installed and it never had any issues at speed. It didn't even vibrate noticeably...
