I'll see what size and material i got in the toolbox. . You think better choice that self tap screw huh? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Thankyou. No I didn't but I will be doing something of the sort today. Before getting it fitted on. Was thinking just some self taping roofing screws with the rubber collar. But perhaps rivet might be a better way to go? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
