Aluminum Fuel Door install?

I've tried searching threw the board and every thread i come up with has a link to the instal that apearantly doesn't exsist anymore. Does anyone have a walk threw for this mod cause i'm right in the middle of it and there doesnt' seem to be anyway to bolt the new door in? The screws in the new door dont have anything to hold onto behind it. Any help would be apreciated.

Are they not self-tapping screws?

Nevermind. I figured out how to make it work. I guess i just paniced there for a minute and just needed to sit down and think about it. I'd post pics but i think everyone knows what it looks like.

I did this mod when it came time to repaint my 94' ......... after searching for a while and taking some measurements, i found that an alum. fuel door for a dodge pickup 94-2001 fits PERFECT if you bent it slightly to flow smooth with the quarter panel....... good luck
