I’ve used Gorilla glue and that’s worked ok.

Jacking pad glue.
I just used two self tappers, drill through about 12 mm from edge on each side to miss the internal bracketing.

Is it wise to stick them on? They attract rust, especially the OSR one.

I am about to have my sill welded up and was wondering about having a welded on metal pad on the car and a soft pad on the jack instead. Any opinions on this?

The jacking pads have a central 'cup' receiver for a similar sized 'pip' on the emergency jack. This is a safety measure to stop them sliding sideways under load. Whatever mods are made to the sills it ought to safely accomodate the jack you carry in the car.

Can I ask why people are sticking them on ? Is it due to rusting sills ?
Mine just push in and twist and are still fine after 18 years I shouldn't have said that , should I ; they will probably fall off now
