I'm going to be installing a wall-hung vanity sink in a few weeks. The old one now removed had some clips on the wall - only one screw actually went into a stud or blocking. The position of the new sink's screws don't line up with any stud or blocking. It's plaster on gypsum board from the early 50's (no lath).
Would you tear the wall up and put in blocking? or just rely on say toggle or molly bolts? the sink is 21.5" wide and 16.5" deep. The drawing shows two bolts holding it to the wall (I don't have it or the instructions, yet).
