I think the two top plates are secured with 3 x M6 on each side and the two rear diagonals by a single M12 each

the 'best' way is to weld it. After that ..... the best bolts you can - so if you can fit M10 stainless then fit those, if not m8, if not m6, if not m4 etc ......... i've no idea when the time is that you go "this is worthless" as you drop down bolt sizes.

Personally, i'll be welding mine in.

Welding is best but if not then m10. M8's at minimum.
