Hi Bill,

Yes, basically. If you weld a nut to the plate, you could enlarge the
existing hole, flip the plate over so that the nut sits on the inside of
the rocker, then weld the plate to the rocker.That will keep things a
little flatter  back there and you should have a good strong mount. I'd
probaly take the plate to the back edges of the sill (3 sides) and drill a
couple holes between the edge and the nut and tack throught to the sill. On
the tunnel side, you need to use the large washerand nut that usually
supplied with the seat belt kit or add a plate . I think this is better
than using the floors as you have shear strength. If you do the floors, I
would add a plates to spread the load.
