Hi folks, I have purchased a new led light to go over the door any ideas of the best way to fix it to the van I am reluctant to use screws and believe these can be bonded on, I have some sikaflex which I have heard is the best, any ideas or suggestions appreciated. many thanks.

    Sikaflex sticks better than the proverbial to a blanket .... though there are different types of Sikaflex

    I’ve used Sikaflex extensively on marine applications and it’s good stuff.
