Use Plate mount Stabs on a PCB mount board?

I've got a hand wired setup that is nearly full functional. But the holes on the plate are too big and seem to only allow PCB mountable stabs. Does anyone have any advice or methods on how I could use some plate mount parts on there?

I've got a pack of costar/filco style as well as the cherry MX stabs at hand.

I hope this is in the right section.

so if im reading that correctly you have a plate for a pcb mount keyboard and want to use plate mount stabs?

Not sure how to recommend doing that but you may be able to use the enabler pcbs for using pcb mount stabs but i feel like you would still need to support them but I have not tried them myself other than the 1x ones anyways.
