Ok, but you don't the question.
I meant what is the best way to bolt it to the floor, getting around the trans tunnel with the bolts, and the best way for going through the floor.

I'm just being a dick at 2 am. As the guy before said. Or use self-tapping screws.

I had a friend weld some bolts to the floor which I used for mounting studs. I am worried about rusting and did not want any extra holes in the floor. Worked well for me, but there is extra work removing the carpet to access the metal floor.
