Just fitted D-rings to a Tim Reed; pre-drill the holes correctly with the exact drill bits not wider than the screw's core and thus well inside the threading to avoid leaking. Remove the drilling wood dust from the accordions interior too, otherwise it will endup blocking reeds. I used wide headed plate screws with double washers the same with to disperse stress and avoid scratching the accordion and corner pieces by the D-ring's base plate. You can use Larry Miller's way as Nick suggested, but that involves more drilling and hole making, and the D-ring's base plate is made of tough material. Don't drill that part when fitted to the accordion in case your drill skips sideways. PS i have locally and specially made straps with delrin hooks for sale occasionally ....
