I am installing a new set of these under-gunnel LED tubes. They are identical to these in the pics, just longer (31" vs 16").
Since the glass is so thin in that area, I wasn't able to use any screws. So instead I used tie rod bases with double sided sticky tape. They worked okay for a while, but a bunch of them fell off over the winter. I kind of expected that to happen.
I was thinking of maybe using some epoxy or 5200 to glue strips of wood, one strip per light, and then I can attach the tubes however I want. I could waterproof the wood with epoxy, and then paint them with Parker color matched paint. It just seems a little too permanent though. What if I ever want to get them off for some reason?
Any other ideas? :?:
