From your picture i can't even see the rivets or the holes in the plate. I have known people to pop rivet them on, Use self tappers and once i had one that had been glued on.

I used stainless pop rivets for mine.  Aluminum rivets will set up galvanic corrosion with the steel frame, so best to go with the SS variety.
