I noticed that last night too...obviously making it much more expensive of an endeavor.
What are these center bolts used for on the older gen car?

Going to depend a bit on the direction of force applied to the brace and fastener size. If you can get full torque on an 8mm fastener with a rivnut, it's probably going to have enough clamping force for most braces. Won't know till you try. I'd avoid the socket in a socket style rivnuts, they don't seem as strong in my experience with them.
