We assume your Hot Foot is not on a Slider and a factory mount, which is why BCB only mounts Hot Foots on Pin Sliders. If yours is loose, we suggest filling the holes with either resin or epoxy and replacing it with a Slider beneath it. If it is on a Slider same process just remount and we have yet to see a Slidling mount Strip screws on factory mounts, just aftermarket installs where the screws are not set in resin. All BCB Hot Foot screws are set in resin. Some dealers save a few bucks and lots of time installing these without Sliders and only setting the screws in silicone which can not seal the oles though the carpeting, nor does it secure the screws.Everything is really for a specific reason at BCB.
