These light weight mounting plates, attach to the chassis or other structural member and provide an anchor point for the Dzus fasteners.

See also Tpye 1 and Type 2 mounting plates for different configurations.

They're individually mounted on a soft rubber backing, so no cutting is required (and no lost parts).

Here's a photo of a real lightweight plate.

            

With 60 pieces included, there are enough plates here for a few cars.

See also the Dzus quarter-turn fasteners that would attach on the outside of the body panel.
