Seeking Help Installing Ring Floodlight Wired Camera

Hello, I am a little unsure on how to install a new Ring Floodlight Cam Wired to the front of my house. There is vinyl siding and I am unsure of what is under it all. I am going to check but I believe there is foam insulation board under it all. I attached photos of the area I am planning on installing it. My Dad wants it installed above the existing since it has a special power switch (LightAlert). Additionally, I have the following mounting pieces (see attached). How can I connect these to siding, or should I cut and install junction box? [Link to photos](https://photos.app.goo.gl/cby7Efd9n2QXuoC67)

    Hi @SSF156. Thanks for sharing the images. First, I don't recommend installing the Floodlight in that Location. The Floodlight Cam is designed to be installed around 9 ft high. This height will allow the Floodlight Cam to detect motion properly. Any higher than this and you will run into functionality issues with your Floodlight Cam. [Here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000124983-Proper-Positioning-for-Your-Floodlight-Cam) is a guide for properly mounting your Floodlight Cam.

      Okay thank you. I am missing the metal mounting plate for the camera. Is there anywhere I can buy it?
