Can The Thinline LED Trailer Light # STL64RB Be Mounted With Double-Sided Tape

Question:
I have a Ford Transit van, can these be mounted vertically using just double stick tape? Or do the need to be mounted using screws?

Hey Gardiner,
You could use double-sided tape to mount the Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL64RB, but you'd be a lot more secure with two self-tapping screws. I would use some VHB tape if you want to go that route to ensure it's able to withstand vibration and high temperatures.

Hey Gardiner, how did the Thinline LED tail lights hold up with the VHB tape on your Transit? Your results could really help others deciding between tape and screws for their setup.
