I know there have been long debates on no-holes verus holes - and I have decided to go with holes. I have the plastic bracket but it came with no screws (bought the car "used" with 1200 miles) I am assuming you use some stainless self tappingscrews to mount the plastic holder - but I can not find info on size - specifically length. Anyone know off the top of their head the approximate length? Thanks in advance

 

I just had mine off this last weekend and I think they were about 1", just a bit longer than the ones that hold the plate to the plastic mount.

 

# 10 X 3/4 or 1" sheet metal screw is good . make sure that you use a small pilot drill. A large fender washer will help to spread out the load.

 

Thank You

 

What's in back of the plastic? Are you drilling into metal at that point?

 

Felt like just plastic to me - the screws worked fine and held the holder in place perfectly secure

 

There is a small reinforcment area behind the dimple to allow the screw to hold. You will not drill into the crashbar which is about 1" away.
