Insulation Sheathing

I'm calling it that for lack of a better term.

I'm referring to the nylon tarp type stuff that covers the floor insulation (from below) on my Wanderer Wagon toy box. I'm trying to mount some wheel chocks though the floor but have run into this barrier. I obviously don't want to violate the integrity of this stuff, but need to bolt through the floor.

Should I cut the barrier and try to patch it? If so, how.

Perhaps change the mounting hardware to an expanding (molly type) bolt? I'm not sure if this would be stout enough.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kent
