Hi Gubert,
i used double-sided adhesive tape, which works perfect for me.AxLED

Thx for reply.
First i used this tape:

After long research i ordered “Sikaflex 260 N”

Works perfect! :)But if anyone will use this too. Be careful with this glue. Its for industrial designed! Your hands will be very thankfull if you use gloves for work with that. :smirking_face:

Go to a shop that replace car windshields and ask them for some of the tape/glue they use ro mount the windshields. Strong stuff!
