Been on the phone for 15 minutes.  Bought the indoor/outdoor mount which included zero instructions.

 

All I need is the drillbit to use to mount this stupid thing and not a single person in their support knows.  

 

What has everyone else used?  I need to install the plastic anchors.

If you need to install plastic anchors...

PUT the base of mount in the place you like, mark with a pencil / pen the mount hole locations.

You need a drill bit just  very slightly smaller than the biggest diameter of the shaft of the anchors.

You drill the hole, use a small hammer to pound the anchor flush to the level of the materal you drilled into ( or a normal hammer used lightly )

Place mount on top and use screw into anchors

 

i do recommend a temp mount first to insure location is good before permanent mount hole by duc tape or however.
