Hey Kenneth, this is a great question but what we have found is that currently more people are preferring to use VHB 3M tape followed by an adhesive sealant like the # AL43KV instead of drilling. This gives you a permanent install that is really solid that doesn't require having to find bracing to drill into and all that comes with that.
We do not carry the VHB tape at this time though.
