Need Suggestions About Where To Put....

....the dreaded cabover camper stabilizer shock mounts. These are the plates with eight attaching holes for mounting the pivot ball from the bottom of the stabilizers to the vehicle. Before, I had these on the fenders right above the emblems. See pic:

I had them with a 1/4" thick backing plate and attached with 1/4-28 stainless button-head screws. Worked well but I did not want to booger up these new fenders. My thoughts are now in the corners of the wiper cowl drilled through the upper fender reinforcement and into the cowl duct. I will put four, #14X3" stainless steel, hex-head sheet metal screws in the bottom-most attaching holes and the 1/4" button heads in the top four holes and into backing plates. I have an old cowl I can cut up and use for a reference template prior to attempting this. What do you think? Should be secure. Where do you put yours and maybe I will change my mind if there is a better suggestion.
Thanx!
