Replaceable parts under leaking kitchen sink

Seems I have a leak where the drain line meets the sink. Which parts are replaceable (A,B,C)? Do I need to find something made for the sink, or are these universal connections?

Rivet success?

How should I evaluate the success of these stainless steel rivets? I'm thinking I'd like something in between the two, but this is what I have. Should I choose the middle or the outer two?

I want to rivet this RAM track into my Top Box, but the business end of the rivet gun is too wide to get to the bottom of the track.

What other options will have a low profile on both the inside of the box and and the bottom of the track? I’m showing blind rivets, but I do have access to both sides, so I could use a different product. (the simple solution is a bolt, but I’d prefer a permanent solution, and they don’t tend to be as flat on both sides as a rivet.)

How do I figure out what electrical farkles I can put on my 2014 VStrom DL1000A?

For example, say I want to add this charger for my iPhone to the cigarette lighter. I know this circuit has a 3A fuse.

Type-C and Type A 2-Port Cigarette Charger
input voltage: 12-24VDC
power output: 48W Total (30W for Type-C & 18W for Type-A)
output current: 3A max

What's the first thing I should do to calculate:

  1. Does this product draw too much power?

  2. If not, then how much power is remaining for other farkles?
