mechanical-idiot Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Take a gander at the photo. Inside part fell off. I assume this comes apart and can be glued? I don't want to break it even more! See how the round piece inside has fallen backwards. Anyone here have this problem? Fix with Silicone? Epoxy? Crazy Glue? Bubble Gum? mecanical-idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
probak118 Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) How the heck do you get at that, I almost think you need to replace the whole lens itself ? If that is the case, guess it would not hurt to experiment on taking it apart and try to do as you suggest and glue it back in place. Are not most all those outer body plastic parts friction welded into one solid piece, hope I am wrong and someone else can help you.

mechanical-idiot Posted April 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 I am going to pull it off the car and see if I can get into it. There are a couple of screws on the inside of the lights, so hopefully it comes apart. I looked at some photos on ebay. I will let you know if I am lucky. Rain here for next 4 days. Might wait for a dry day. No garage. mechanical-idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechanical-idiot Posted April 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 Break in rain tonight. Took it off the vehicle. Could not get it apart. It appears to be a sealed unit. Off to the junkyard. mechanical-idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechanical-idiot Posted May 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 No, didn't do it. Thought it might split the inside part. Gonna get a junkyard replacement sometime. mechanical-idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
