The plastic tag mount broke off my 5th wheel. I fabricated a new aluminum mount but cannot figure out a way to attach it to the fiberglass on on the rear of my fiver. Screws through the very thin fiberglass? I don't that would last long. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi rv7plt,

Consider using something like flex-a-seal. I.E. double sided water proof tape.

^^^ what he said ^^^

3M makes a great waterproof double sided tape. All my flat-mount business signage is held into place by it, and has been for years.

Similar to regular pop rivet, but peel like a banana on the inside, rather than swell.
