The ones I tried had the adhesive already applied. Some of them came unstuck after a while. If there is a way to put a small rivet through the center, I would do it. Cheers!

If you must use them, clean the aluminum with acetone first. -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=474975#474975 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:25:25 PM PST US From: Todd Bartrim Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Double stick foam anchors Aaahh, sticky-back zip-tie anchors, love 'em & hate 'em. I use them at work often. Sometimes they hold with a permanent bond and are very difficult to remove and often they do not hold at all. Over all, they do work well if you have a clean surface and apply in warm environment. But don't count on it.

As suggested by a previous post, I just scrape off the foam backing, roughen the surface with coarse sandpaper and mount the pads with JB Weld. It takes a few minutes but you=99ll onl y do it once.
