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.

The item in my kit
I bought Hawkeng Rubber Spacers as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I cut and drilled aluminum bracket pieces for the roof cameras and lights. The camera mounts needed additional holes and adjustments as I brought the assemblies together on the extrusion.
I sprayed the camera-mount pieces with black bedliner during the fabrication sequence. The coated brackets then formed part of the roof camera and light arrangements shown in the diary.

My build notes
The black finish was one stage within the mount fabrication. The holes and profile connections still determined where the pieces could sit, so the diary records the drilling and fitting alongside the coating.
The bracket shape, drilled holes and coating were separate parts of finishing the mount.
Alternative products
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.
Glarks Single-Size Rubber Spacers
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.
