Re: Methods of Mounting LEDs
Velcro is legal, but double stick tape is not. See <R14>

Re: Methods of Mounting LEDs
FIRST's Q&A page says that double-sided foam tape is legal:

Q: Are we allowed to use the double sided sticky foam to hold the lights more securely in place?
A: Yes.

Re: Methods of Mounting LEDs
one of the last team updates say double sided tape and sticky velcro tape are now ok to use anywhere on your bot

Just to agree with everyone else (), we used Velcro also.

We took of the lens covers and used the screw holes to screw them in. Then we zip tied the lens covers on because they kept falling off. Tied them a little too tight and they cracked.

ha, we put ours on the day before we shipped, slapped the velcro all around our central solenoid that sticks straight up and mounted those lights. Whole electronics team was rush to finish wiring. We did not have the pleasure of taking to time to put such things on. Just like Texan's quote, we get almost no time to wire.
