I think the nuts are made from thin sheet metal formed to make a nut. they will cut threads into plastic shaft on the reflector. Cut the treads on the reflector shafts before mounting the reflectors, it will make it much easier to do off the car than on the car. I needed to remove one of the plastic rivets holding wheel well to the bumper. I just could not get one of the nuts off the reflector without doing this. I have huge hands and just could not work through that tiny access panel and I had the wheels off. Definitely use an inspection mirror to see the hidden nut. I can rebuild a transmission and this was more difficult for me due to the tight quarters and my large hands. Taking the bumper off would have been easier. But on my silver car the effort was well worth it, see for yourself.
