Apexi Stands Won't Stick!

[R34_Wong]

Ok, so after spending about $100 double sided tape, I'd like to ask... has anyone tried to stick the Apexi stands ontop of the triple cluster on an R34 GT-T and got it to REALLY stick?

I'm not going to glue the buggers down, so any help with brands/types of tape most appreciated!

3M outdoor tape, the type to use to stick things to brickwork. As well as cleaning the surface to be stuck to with some isopropyl alcohol prior to application. Not to an r34, but I had the devils own trying to stick to my r32 and my03 dashes.

Make sure you clean the surface of the dash first... then, go to Coles and buy some goo strips... they're clear gooey blubs of disposable sticky stuff... not super glue so can be easily removed without scratch your dash but strong enough to hold your stand.

I got frustrated too, until I discovered this... I think it's made by 3M too.

Good luck.

i dont think sticking it on top of the cluster would be a good idea and would look pretty bad.. i would stick it somewhere else.. but thats just my opinion

I got some 3M tape from Bunnings, cleaned both dash surface and stand surface with some decent spray and wipe then just stuck it on, held fine with no issues for a year until I ripped it off. Make sure you clean both surfaces because that makes all the difference

Thing that really rocks my world is that fact that it sticks to the metal holders fine, just not to the cluster.

Hmmm, ok, I'll see what else I can do. Does anybody know what to clean it with and where to buy the stuff?

Find it very hard to believe that 3M wont stick to your dash. Must be really dusty or greasy..

have you try get rid of the residual on the stand before applying new tape?
