I drilled small holes into the tabs on the bottom half of the steering surround, and matching holes in the Pettit holder. Used small black self-tapping screws to attach the two halves - was a decent amount of work, but looks great and is SUPER secure. And, if I have to take it apart, just remove the screws and done.
