Depends on how thick the wood is there, might not be much to grip to.
Instead of glueing nuts why not use a T Nut? Speaker cabinet builders use them for the speaker holes.

Drill a hole the size of the middle part and pound into wood like a nail.

Kind of a late comment, but they say better late than...
Just wanted you to know that I think the way you're documenting your project is admirable. I have seen nothing but the quest for perfection, and finally I confess that this project is the reason I became a BYOAC member.
So, if anyone's to blame, it's you ;D
Timoe:
update pics? What color tmold will you be using?
Bones:
Thanks C64.

No updates at this moment. I had a hand operation two weeks ago and still recovering. Hoping to return to construction in a few weeks.
There is very little left to actually do. I need to finalise my marquee and dashboard graphics then I will attach the t-molding (black), and we are pretty much done.
There will still be sideart but I am not treating this as a priority at this time.
