usually there is a plastic nut that holds the whole thing on. Sometimes it's really narrow and hard to get to. Sometimes there are two on either side and sometimes just one in the middle. It's a bit like the plastic nuts used to secure a toilet tank to the base of a toilet.

Greetings: I have a question concerning our kitchen taps and fawcett that I hope I can describe. It is one unit .. that is taps and fawcett are all attached to a metal base that sits on the back of the sink. My wife noticed that the unit has come loose - it has and when I feel under the sink there is no apparent place where it may have been attached to the sink/counter. I did notice a piece of metal that had probably been a clip or something but it was so rusted I could not figure where it had been attached. There are three holes .. one for the hot one for the cold water lines and a hole that is directly under the fawcett. I know something is going to break unless I secure the unit. Any ideas what I need to ask for at Home Depot to anchor this again? Our sink at work has a very similar arrangement but when I reach in I just can't tell what is securing the unit. I hope this was understandable.
