Dont just screw it on as it will look poo, get some of this type stuff from homebase. Its a two part glue that is fookin strong and stick some small metal plates with a hole drilled in it copying the original bracket shape then fibre glass over the top (if not stick it on then put a layer of the glue over the top) make sure the surfaces are very clean to get a good bonding surface. Hope this helps.
