Attaching bodies

[yeahright]

Ok so its been about 10 years that Ive been into RC Cars, however I usually just attach the bodies with the body posts and body pins, BUT now I would like to learn how everyone else attaches them, I can see some have a button head screw through the body and thats even better than the standard way.
Could I please see some pics of different body mounts and ways of attaching bodies, Im building a Scale JK on an SCX chassis but don't want the posts sticking through the body.

Screw through roof


Screws on the side into the sliders.

I really like the tamiya and velcro idea but I can't seem to find the part

Gunnar Body Mounts

You'll still have posts sticking up through the body, but they come with basically thick, threaded washers, and you can grind the posts down flush, or use the supplied acorn nuts. Or you could drill sideways through the posts for body clips, I suppose.

My only real gripe is that no matter how hard I crank on the crossbraces where they attach to the frame, they rotate when trying to wrangle the flat washer on. The acorn nuts don't seem to pose that much of a problem for my giant meat-paws, so I'll probably just resort to having two giant nuts sticking up outta my hood.



Plenty of room for raising and lowering the body, though.
Edit: Sorry, just remembered, those white bolts aren't supplied, those are wing mounting bolts (airplane) I picked up when the LHS closed up shop.



--------------------
In my XR-10, I'm using the same system, but instead of the 1/4-20 plastic bolts, I'm using some body posts that I found in a spare parts bag.



I just run body pins in this one,
