Why did this item not include mounting screws?

Depending on where you place the unit, you may need self-taping screws or bolts with locknuts. Also, the length of the screws/bolts will vary.

My guess is that some people mount it to the battery box and some to a metal frame or fiberglass all varying in different thickness which would require a different length screw based on your mounting surface.

No .. as every installation is a custom build. I put my switch on the inside of a Toy Hauler (plywood board) and the professionals who did the wiring did not use the back plate (it is plastic to match the material on the sides) as there was no battery to ground issue that you will have when placed on metal. The switch lays closer to the wall that way. The screws you use will have to match the placement you chose for install and fit the four hole openings. In my case it was wood screws.

Those "screw holes" are cosmetic, they don't exist. I suppose you could carefully drill actual screw holes and mount it, but it's all thin plastic.

I don't recall if any mounting screws are included, but no special screws are required. Just use the proper screw/anchor depending upon the surface you are mounting to.

Our order did not have screws either. I went to the Ace Hardware near by and bought 4 # 6 1&1/2" flat head screws that worked just fine. The four screws were under a dollar. Thanks, Steve

When I received my ram mounts, they did not have any mounting screws in the package either.

I didn't install personally, someone else did it for me, but I would say 2 screws and that should be it. It took it no time to do so, like a minute.

If there were no mounting clips in the box you should return them Are you sure they were not included? They are quite small and made of clear plastic. I believe that there were also screws with mine and I have ordered these more than once. Mark

Mine does not have screws. The end caps pop off, so they probably added those to stop that.

it does not come with screws. But does anyone know the approx length and diameter of the screw? I lost my original screws somehow and need to buy the replacement screws..thanks

I'm sorry I can't help you. I ordered this for my husband and he hasn't put it in yet (it's been months). Perhaps the problem is the lack of mounting instructions?

I AM unsure because I have not had to do so yet. Why not take it to your local hardware store (lowes, home depot, menards..etc) and see if they can tell you what screws you would need.

No, unfortunately it just came with the bracket alone. I do not recall the size screws I used, sorry.

I bought one just before heading to Ragbrai last year. (Procrastination is my avocation) The hardware was missing 2 screws, and had other screws for what I had no idea. I found the screws I needed in my leftover screw collection. If I had to shop for them, I would have been very upset. The instructions may be intuitive to some, but not to me. It took more time to install than planned, but it worked out extremely well and continues so.

I'm not certain, but I think screws were included with it. We had no problems mounting it inside a cabinet purchased locally (to turn it into a wine cabinet). Just make sure the screws won't poke out through the top.

Mine came with 4 screws. Try contacting amazon about your issue or the manufacture. Good luck!

No screws come with product. The ends have flaps that are drilled for two screws per end. Very easy to mount, visible screw heads, but no screws provided.
