the nuts are clipped on the inner door itself. There's nothing on the finished panel. So I will do the paint or grease technique. My question was pertaining to what kind of protection I would need on the finished panel. Do I drill out the holes and use grommets, rubber washers, some kind of plate, or, do the new armrests come with gaskets, etc..? My thinking is not to screw anything to the finished panel, but to line up with clipped nuts on interior of door and tighten as best I can without distorting anything. Lol. I can over think something simple. Thanks for responses.
