Behind the A pillar metal there is an air gap, then some sort of plastic piece in there. I did not drill into it. Instead I drilled an appropriate sized pilot hole in the A pillar, “tapped” the hole using the supplied sheet metal screw. Which was too long, it would have to go deep into the plastic piece when fully seated. So I backed out the screw, cut off the bladed portion to shorten it so it would not hit the plastic, and re-installed it with loctite. Look back at my earlier post for how I did it.
