A self tapper into the back of the box? Don't think it matters, though.
Might also be worth putting a bit of tape around it... but if you've
stripped the wires correctly (i.e. no bare bits showing which might
short on the back box) and given that the screws are sheathed anyway,
what the heck? As you've got 50mm to play with, the number of wires and
connections doesn't seem too bad either :-) Rather deep for a backbox
though - wonder why it was done like this?
Hwyl!
