you could try to fill the holes with some epoxy and re-drill, but there is no saying if it will hold.

It won't. Epoxy won't stick to the nylon mount.

my bad, i was just guessing. Personally, i would either drill it through and put a nut on or even go to a larger diameter screw that has enought to still catch the mount. I was just throwing the idea about the epoxy out there really. at least i qualified it with the part about "no saying if it will hold". guess that question was answered before it got a chance to fail for real. thanks for the voice of reason Dr1Driver.
