do I have to use the tape or are the 4 screws enough?

I have a 2013 F150 and on this model You'll need the tape as the screws only attach the outer edges to the hood. Without the tape the center of the shield the width of the grill would be left loose. As the other guy said, it's already mounted. It works fine.

On my 2008 F150, there is no tape. However, the ends do sit on the top of the head light housing a little harder than I like. I'm thinking about using the dremmel to shave them a bit.

The tape already comes mounted. I would use it anyways, makes things easier with keeping the shield in place. The screws are on the outer sides, you want to secure the center, that's what the tape is for.

It came with both screws and double sided tape. You can use either or both.

I used #8 sheetmetal screws. Rivets would work and 3M 5200 marine adhesive would be great.

Yes.. in fact you can use both screw and the tape. However, there is no need to screw it to the wall. I have installed these in every home we've owned and never had one come loose from the wall. I apply the doublesided tape and the silicone only. In fact, when renovating one time I had to remove one in order to do that wall. Talk about a chore to get off!! They STAY.

I think they gave me more than two screws too. I believe they were for the sign that came with it. I didn't put up the sign. I only used two screws and two uh mollys (the plastic screws that the screws go in to). I didn't do it someone did it for me and that's what I saw them do. Hope that helps.

Agree with other replies, screws are cheap if you need shorter ones. I like the product well enough to have used it in multiple homes. Go for it.

My answer verifies the others - both. Using the screws is best although a little more time consuming.

Kevin The screws that the manufacture supplies are too big. You will need to use smaller ones.

screws are supplied and the holes are there, I have used the tape mount for about 3-4 months without any problems.

No. I did not use the screws. I used the 3m removable adhesives and they held well

I mounted this outdoors under a deck for a cellar entrance and used screws, never giving a consideration at all. I don't remember if tape was supplied with the packaging. Sorry, this doesn't help.

No you have to use ur own adhesive. Beware using the little strips of adhesive u can buy on amazon or other sites... Remember this is ONLY held in by adhesive! NO SCREWS

Cat6 cable is a bit loose in these clips, but I don't think you're going to find anything better, at least not anything with screws. I used electrical tape to thicken up the spot where I was using the clip and that worked well. I don't think you even need to do it for every clip, just every couple to tighten up the slack and prevent it from pulling through.

I used normal double sided tape that you can buy at office supply store. I just needed more than they sent. It worked.

Use zip ties to hold all of the pieces in place when screwing themIn- will save you a huge headache

I used staples to install. But you could use double sided tape. The staples worked great for me.
