Are you trying to cover holes that have appeared where the floor touches the the floor cross members?
Hi, no just want to secure it to the existing floor which is in good shape so want to keep it that way, cheers

Ah, your worried about the rivets leaking and creating 'rust' holes!
Absolutely!

If you decide to rivet it in, make sure you buy aluminium rivets so they don't react with the aluminium floor and load liner. Treat the rivets on the outside with dinitrol or similar.
Or, you could just bond it in. It's not as though it's going to be under any load against the adhesive! Make sure you get a good bond around the edges to prevent moisture getting between the two.
Are you planning on carrying a lot of rough, heavy stuff?

Why ? It's difficult to clean, just get a rubber liner. No fitting, take it out to clean, no rust 
I carry a full load of loose wood twice a week so reckon it should be fine with the adhesive, I just like the idea of doing it the strongest way, but yes I think you’re right, it won’t go anywhere!

Iv'e used black checker stable rubber sheet in my 101 looks good on cabin foot plates as well.

I done my mates with Sikaflex & I use it on boats every week for all sorts of jobs but don't expect to remove

You could also paint it with raptor paint & tint it to the same colour as your motor

Could you use rivnuts and stainless bolts rather than rivets? You can unbolt it then to check underneath?
I drilled 2 holes in my tub so the water can drain out, mines a pick up :/
