that is a good question...if you drive on dry roads all year round it should be all right, but in my case in real central european conditions with salt on the roads...not sure
the 4 screws are there to hold the black box together...what I think is more important is the seal (how long does your white silicone last in the real conditions in a shower bath?)
see a picture of original bmw nox herebelow...this is what I think is good industrial quality build...after more than 10 years on the road and it was definitely watertight...it was a challenge to open it...the first level of black seal kept the body and cover firm together..and inside- everything suffused by transparent elastic insulating mass; so I guess the electronic part would survive even very long washing machine program :-) ....compared to noxem board covered by kind of a of cheap chinese asphalt applied in a thin fragile layer...
