This is a very simple but effective mount for the mini height ir sensor which uses differential measuring to work with all sorts of heatbed surfaces.
The mount is meant to be super-glued below the j-frame of the Anet A8. The lower part of the pcb should be about 1.5 mm above the nozzel. The sensor itself can be attached with the two screws which come with the kit. I found that the 2.5 mm diameter holes are tight enough to fit with the delivered machine screws. You can fix them with nuts if you really want to.
There are two versions:
One is a solid mount with a height of 5.5 mm that may fit for stock Anet A8 setups. I also added the Fusion 360 project file for that which can easily be modified to different heights.
The second version is an adjustable version. I used that one to find the best height for my setup but then wanted to make the solid one.
