Weld Stud Replacement

If a weld stud becomes damaged during a repair procedure, use the following procedure in order to replace the weld stud:

1. Drill a hole into the same location as the damaged weld stud.
2. Drive a new screw into the drilled hole.
3. Use a screw in order to retain the clips, molding, etc. in the same manner used with the weld studs.
4. If the surface becomes marred, repair and/or paint the surface in order to provide a smooth surface. Refer to Clearcoat Repair without Repainting () in Paint/Coatings.
