Now we needed to look at the reference to figure out where whatever these thing-a-ma-jiggies are called go.

Image
Everything is plotted out and now it's time to drill some holes and mount some greeblies!

Image
This is how we mounted the top ones. The original screws for these are small. If we were to try and mount these with just the screws, chances are they will eventually fall out as the threading won't bite into the wood very well. We screwed some rubber gaskets to the sides which actually creates a powerful suction that will keep these on pretty darn well. Then we will glue the screws into the wood which will just add more support to them. That comes after paint though (if you pay closer attention to the reference, the base of these greeblies are actually painted red along with the screws).

Image
Here they are in place. Notice how they're slightly offset to each other. This is actually how they are if you pay close attention to the source material.
Any chance you'd be willing to share info on these? I know the manufacturer, but pinning down sizes is hard even with their spec sheets.
