yes davey mate..use the silcone that comes with it..or your own which ever you find easy to use....leave about a 1mm space so you can inject some silicone in the joint....It is best to stick them on first then when set, then silicone the joints..this way they don't move about as you try to silicone them.....dont forget the soapy water to get a nice finish.....

Also forgot to say weight the bath down with water whilst sticking them on and drying..it will stop the silicone splitting when they use the bath.....
