That would work too. But the problem with all those solutions is to get a tap down deep in that hole. I'm not sure if they make taps that long. An extension would be difficult also, since it would have to be really thin walled to fit in the hole. Even if you find a tap that long, it will be extremely fragile, since usually the hole thing is hardened, and boy if that breaks off half way down the hole, you gonna have a lot more trouble. A modified bolt is softer and flexes more. It won't break off as easy. A tap that long, with a thin hardened shaft shears off really easy. That is one stupid design with thin bolts that long, screwed into aluminum, and frequently scheduled to be removed and assembled again.
