Does anyone know how to rectify this problem? I can't be the only one. The little bolts rust, you go to unscrew one and then snap. There are 3 on each side. The first one was the left rear bolt and I forget what I did, probably stuck a small drill bit up there but I can catch that one but I have to keep using the same bolt for it. Today, the middle left snapped off and there is no way to put anything back. There is no real room to do anything as the bolt holes are built inside that; I don't know if I can drill in there, re-tap in there, no idea. Anyone solve this issue?

The bolts are easy enough to get, as Nissan uses the exact same size and it's much easier to order them as a Nissan part from somewhere.
