Wow guys, thanks for the quick responses. I am usually pretty good at finding studs in a sheetrock or paneled wall by knocking. But this wall is like fully bonded together with the fiberglass on the outside and the paneling like material on the inside with something sandwiched in between. So there's no give at all on the inside and the sound doesn't change as I knock along it. The walabot looks like it would work great but it's only available for android devices which I don't have. I had already thought about liquid nails and I plan to use it but I would really like to have a few screws into the stud. I think I'll try looking at it from the outside when the humidity is high. It also seems like I can remember being able to tell something about it from the inside one time when it was really cold outside and I had the heater on. Like maybe the wall was sweating everywhere except at the studs. Anyway, thank you all for your help. Now I have something to work with. I do appreciate it.
Just thought of something else: I have an infrared digital thermometer that might just do the trick. If I catch it when it's cold outside and run the heat for a little while I may be able to slowly move the thermometer across the wall till I find the colder spot. Surely the aluminum studs won't insulate as well as the full walls. Opinions?
