Update - Well I installed the rub rail track and I ended up using rivets. I found them really easy to work with and they pulled the track up to the hull edge really nicely. I didn't need to use a heat gun as Bunkie suggested expect for the very ends near the transom. Installed the new bow light wire this morning and the black insert is half way in - stopped at the bow.

Question for the group:

1) Do most cut the rub rail track to accept the bow light/chock or go with todd12's method? todd12 can you post some pictures of what you did? Also, no the kit didn't come with instructions but I initially referenced Boston Whaler's rub rail diagram and Specialty Marine's rub rail installation instructions.
