I'd see about buying pannier hooks at a bike shop. I've used cut down and bent screen door springs to replace worn out springs on panniers. I use a S-hook at the bottom of the spring to hold the pannier to the lower rail or lower leg of the rack. The hooks can be bolted to where the D-rings are. Reinforcing the bag with thick plastic or thin hardboard so that it doesn't fop around and get into the wheel is a great idea.
Cheers
