I think that I used four across the top and bottom and one center each end for a total of 10 each side. I want to say that they were #8 x 3/4, maybe #10, and I used GE Silicone II for the sealant.

I looked last night and had four screws across top and bottom, none middle ends like I thought. Cleanup, hmmm, wet paper towel I think.

Another way to ''clean up" excess silicone is don't clean it up at all...wait for it to cure and slice away w/ a razor...less of a mess... ;) :D ...

Let's see some pics of those new boxes goin' in... ;D ...
