Repair is done. I used a plastic plug and it is undetectable unless you pull off the trim. Thanks John Shemp

I've used these with good results to repair threaded holes in thin metal.

See Rivet nuts section on: http://www.rivetsonline.com/

Drill hole to "nut insert" O.D. and deform into place with special rivet tool.
