I have been using a 2" fender washer with a 6mm nut tacked on with 3-1/8 holes drilled in the washer as a fix for 34 years without issue. Tried nut serve once in the washer but tack welds were not working so back to the trusted welded nut fix. Can't tell you now many many plastic screw tabs I've re-attached.
