    Installing new trailer step

    So I know I should use tape to keep from cracking the plastic when a drill the screw hole. Any suggestions on drill bit, tape type or placement, etc?

    Posted, but no response from BCB yet. Input from anyone would be helpful. The adhesive is a pain to remove. Anyone know what they use?

    Hmmm? We don’t see a post on our Owners Board.

    Please set a link link for us to follow.

    Drilling is just a slow process and we counter sink the head of the oval machine screw. The counter sink will give the edge a clean gel finish.
