Install wall sconces to cabinet sides

I find it very useful in bathrooms to attach wall sconce fixtures to cabinet sides. When I try to do this with my X8 Chief, I can not get the light fixture to attach. Can this be done?

In X9 this is completely auto as they added a special "Cabinet Mounted" functionality and setting.  In X8 it's a little trickier but doable.  You have to add the symbol to your user library, Open Symbol while it is in the library, change the y offset to zero, and under the Options tab change it to Floor Mounted.  Now you can use it. 

 

OR...place a small section of room divider alongside your cabinet.  That works too.

I have X9 but don't know how to use the cabinet mounted functionality.  I've searched help and videos.  Nothing.  How can I do this?  I'm using a wall cabinet as a column with a panel front and want to put the lights on it.

 

Thanks!
