I made this guide some time ago that goes over several options, including using clamps or drop ceiling mounts, depending on your specific setup. Mounting solutions start at just a few dollars per Lighthouse but can add up if you use nicer parts, such as the clamps.
Another option I've started using in a specific room is a ratcheting cargo bar. This is normally used in a truck bed but you can mount it vertically on a windowsill and then use a clamp and a mini ball head to aim the Lighthouses wherever you want.
Note that there are cheaper versions of almost everything I've linked. However, I linked what I actually use because they will last.
Ratcheting cargo bars can be used to create a temporary support between the walls:

You can then hang whatever you want off them to help muffle the sound. The thicker the material, the better the sound reduction.

Bought it to keep stuff tight against the seats in my old suv. It ratchets tight. I’ve never had it pop out or even move while driving on or off road
These or these work really well, pair with two camera clamps like these, and you're good to go. (I use the Harbor Freight ones, but both should be fine)
​
Pro-tip: Point the ratcheting portion down so you're pushing the main pole up, this maximizes base station height, and minimizes vibration.
