suggest you use solid heli coil inserts not the spring type shown in your photo
the solid inserts have spikes at one end and you set it (lock it) in place with a hammer blow. red loctite would secure it and use blue lock-tite on the bolt itself
see this oem kit with solid inserts and punch provided to secure the insert in place
