These were the nuts and tools that I used:
Rivet nut inserts - click on Rivet Nut Inserts.
I understand you spend some time in Mexico, so it's better to use stainless ones. McMaster website is trying to hold you on their page, I had to double-click on the Back button to return back to the forum.
Wrench-drive rivet nut tool
McMaster was the only place where I could find rivnuts 1/4x20 AND in stainless steel AND with wrench installation tool all in one store. Amazon and other places might have rivnuts in regular steel though.
