How do you guys attach the thermal detonator to the belt?

I have a Studio Creations kit and they just sent me zip ties. 

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean attaching the TD housing to the tube?  Yes you do it with one ziptie.

You can see the insertion points here:

How do you attach the whole assembly to the belt?  I’ve seen some people mention money clips, ALICE clips or the clips people use for power tools.

 The two sets of metal clips are riveted to the tubing. Then the the clips just slide over the back side of the belt webbing.

I had originally had velcro on mine as well, but I removed it, because in the end I didn't need it.

Do they have to be riveted? CRL doesn’t specify. Only asking because I have mine mounted with Phillips machine screws and will correct if wrong.

If the tube is hollow then rivets makes sense and would be the better more secure option. My RS tube is filled with foam so screws were a better choice.

Oh, they don't need to be specifically "riveted", no. That's just the most common method, since most vendors supply their kits with a piece of vacuum tube.

Just make sure your screws are well secured as that connection will get stressed whenever you bend over or kneel down.
