Speed nut solution I think, assuming one can be fitted. If not some sort of cavity fixing.
Edit: Seems they are called chimney nuts, lug nuts or spire clips if properly threaded for bolts. I've got some, but I think they are M5 or M4, just need to find a suitable bolt.
Chimney nuts have more of a thread i think, spire clips have a couple of "tags" for self tapping type screws. Have a look for rivnuts too.
