Southco keyless pad

Today I was washing the Alpine getting it ready for a long winter's nap. I gave the rig a good wash/wax with the brush that I normal use. Later I tried to enter the rig and found the keyless entry not working. I removed the keypad from the rv and carefully open the pad and found some water inside. No doubt from today's washing. I used the dw hair dryer and carefully dried all the components inside and installed a new battery. The pad is working again to my delight. All I need is the same grey double stick tape that was used on the rv. Any ideas as to what is used to mount the keyless pad?
