How do I install brackets to roof so I can tie down stuff?

First a question: HOW TALL IS YOUR RV.. If you put stuff on the roof, and it makes it say 14' tall.. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM (13'6" is the height limit)

Next. Drilling into the roof is not as scary as it sounds

Drill your pilot hole.. Apply Dicor caulk, Apply bracket, Apply screws, And more Dicor to seal the screw head.

Have done it many times.
