Difficult one. Some windows we have done while the owner was having the new windows put in which is easy if you work with the window fitters to conceal the cable and bring it though the frame. in other cases we use the minature trunking pref the same colour as the frame and use the self stick trunking and you can't it's there time consuming I know but customer satisfaction is priority.

Screws or nothing, else they will fall off.

Yep, gotta be screwed. Helps if you you mark it 1st then drill tiny pilot holes. Fishing the cables in can be done but you need experience really.

Thanx for the replies I like to use screws but have sometimes used a couple of spots of super glue which holds them on well, just fitting a new built bungalow and the customer was worried about is warranty on the windows using screws and I just wondered if anybody had come up with a better idea than the rubbish sticky pads to get round voiding warranty

No we screw the impaq to the window but the trunking we use either the stick pad or mostly pvc adheshive which bonds plastic to pvc which is great

Use screws or they will fall off.

Would of thought the use of sticky pads would act as a shock absorber on vipers
