After looking through my cabinet, the best thing I can think of would be Marine Goop. If you cut some scratches into the tub even better, but at that point you might as well just use the screws...

Goop ain't a bad idea at all.I could scrath up the spot with some 80grit paper.

2 sided tape(3M automotive grade)... also they sell a suction style catch that might be compatible with the hand shower head...

don't forget that epoxy hardens hard... so if your shower heats up whatever your gluing to the wall, and the wall and the thing your gluing have different coefficient of expansion rates, then the epoxy could crack. West System just came out with a flexible epoxy that is perfect for this... I would clean everything with acetone, scuff with 400 grit, clean with acetone again, and then use the flexible epoxy. Use some duct tape to hold the thing in place as it hardens. Any surface that the glue is going to be touching should be completely cleaned with acetone and immediately glued. oils from your fingers will screw it up so be cautious about that.

Whats better the Marine 5200??
The stuff is for under water use, doesn't mildew and glues for ever!! But it takes 3 days or so to harden up so if you did use it I would get Fast Cure.
