A method is provided for installing an add-on component to a surface of a wind turbine blade, as well as the blade with attached add-on component, and the add-on component as a stand-alone device. A slot is defined in one or both of the pressure side or suction side surfaces of the add-on component. The adhesive side of strips of a double-sided adhesive tape are attached onto either the surface of the wind turbine blade or an interior surface of the add-on component, the tape strips having a release liner on an opposite exposed side thereof. The tape strips are arranged longitudinally along one or both sides of the slot, and each strip has an extension tail that extends beyond an edge of the add-on component when component is held at a desired position against the surface of the wind turbine blade. The extension tails are pulled along the slot at an angle such that that release liner is removed through the slot along the length of the tape strip while maintaining the desired position of the add-on component against the surface of the wind turbine blade.
