That was me, all I did was take a PT 4X4 and cut wedges for the corners. Covered with 5200 and they are still on there today in great shape thats 6 years ago.
I wish I then what I know now and I would have taken more and better pic's.

Yes the bolts went thur the wood, and it was the last 2 holes on the bracket. With the 5200 it wasn't moving!

the wood will be easier to work with than making molds of glass or welding up aluminum.
