yes used riv nuts, that way you dont need to remove any inner trim or bolt through all three skins on the inside of the pillar.
just drill four holes,rust proof,rivit in the riv nuts and bolt on the vane.

Hope you used stainless or alloy ones as the plating on most riv nuts is kinda sh1te so when they start to corrode, they can spread to the bodywork.

Although I would imagine it is simple to remove and inspect.

PS looks nice.
