I bought these rubber spacers with my hardware. My mounting and bracket work shows why the small parts between two surfaces matter as much as the bracket itself.

Spacing Layers in the Camera-Mount Work
I cut and drilled aluminum pieces for the roof-camera and light mounts.
I adjusted attachment holes while bringing the assemblies together on the profiles.
I coated the camera-mount pieces black during the fabrication sequence.

My Takeaway for the Build
The roof-camera fabrication involved cut aluminum pieces and attachment holes through the assembled parts. My rubber-spacer purchase makes the gap between those parts a concrete detail to compare. A pack of matching spacers keeps the pieces consistent; an assortment provides different bodies and bores for different joints.

Function
Separates adjoining parts
The spacer creates a gap around a fastener between two parts. Record its thickness and outside footprint together with the central opening when drawing the hardware stack. For a van bracket or panel arrangement, that shows where the surfaces are separated and where the bolt passes through. Keep the exact spacer reference with the assembly notes so a later replacement can be compared with the actual gap rather than identified only by the bolt size.

Two Alternatives to Compare
The single-size Glarks pack keeps a set of matching spacers together. The Glarks assortment offers several sizes for comparing the spacing and bore needed at different mounting points.
These round rubber spacers provide a gap around a through-fastener. A pack of matching pieces keeps the spacer shape consistent across several mounting points.
