You want to get some well nuts or rivets. They will work better than the toggles.

OEX sells a plastic pop rivet that works quite well for these kinds of attachments. They are expensive as rivets go but they work and will not be affected by marine conditions.

Def go for the plastic pop rivet. Talk to Rik down at the KM OEX, i was down there this afternoon around 4, and he had plenty of them on the shelf.

It's 7.99 for a pack of 10 at the OEX in Mission. I was there today and bought 2 packs, they work great. I now have Rod holders mounted to my Kayak. Next will be the FF. I was going to use regular Rivets that you get at Home Depot, but after watching a video made by OEX in Mission Bay I realized that it's better to get the ones that are made for Kayaks. I have never used rivets but after yesterday man I'm hooked up. Tonight I'll be installing the FF and Handles on the Yak. I'll be ready for Saturday's first launch.
