    Know what you're suggesting but not for a D4 airbox - just won't work in this application.

    Why not just fill the holes with this stuff


    Q-Bond SMALL Plastic Repair KIT QBOND Bonding Glue
    under plastic repair on ebay.

    If necessary get a drill and make the hole bigger at the bottom , then fill with the bonding agent, and then redrill the hole to the original size.

    Or you could try placing some glad wrap around the screw , placing the filler in the hole and then you should have a thread formed.

    Regards Philip A

    Wrapping teflon plumbers tape works well. Conforms to thread and is very thin.
