Mud Haters,
I removed my rear wing a while back to make room for some Maxtrax.
After removing the wing, I reinstalled the bolts to prevent water from entering the holes. I would now like to swap the OEM bolts with stainless cap screws. All of the bolts except one came out easily. The top left bolt, that came out before, cannot be removed because the rivet nut is spinning.
The washer on the bolt is larger than the rivet nut so I can’t get pliers on it from the outside.
I put some penetrant on the bolt and attempted to back out with no luck. I also pulled the 3rd brake light to see if I could reach the rivet nut with pliers, but no dice.
Do any of you fine members of mud have any suggestions that will not mar the paint?
