Swim platform mounting

[daz28iroc 73]

I have a 2008 avalanche and have had the sqim platform brackets brake a few times. So looking at upgrading to a set of brackets from a malibu that are available on bakes. The holes are 1/2" mounting holes. And i see that the mounting on the boat is molded into the fibreglass so wondering, has anyone drilled that out for 1/2" bolts and is that a plate or nuts molded into the fibreglass?

I also broke mine looked around and I found the ones they use on new nautiques fit my typhoon and probably your av as well they are pricey as hell but amazing that play or slop you have now when the swim deck is on water and waves hit it will go away its major improvement. I grab a pic when I get home and try to find the company that makes them. And yes the threads are in the hull small modification to the brackets and they worked nice.
