Default roof rack accessories

What's the easiest way to attach scale accessories to a roof rack without using cable ties?
How are most doing it?

In particular I am looking at the proline rack for my axial jeep with the scale accessories set #1 and 2.

As the parts I am considering are from the same manufacturer are there perhaps holes under the cooler box etc. for me to screw mount them on?

Double sided tape would just collect dirt and possibly get knocked off if bumped!

Ok great, thanks all ;)

I have just ordered those items I mentioned above so will need to make a plan with some sort of scale cord.

Mine are all made from Fencing wire (like 8 bucks for a massive roll at a hardware store) and hair ties.

This is what I did, it works quite well. Screws and servo tape also do the trick. CA or epoxy doesn't hold in a roll over In my experience.
