Reproduction All Red
« on: September 04, 2019, 05:32:49 »
Hey Guys

I've had my all red repro lights on my car since the fall of 2003.  Since then I have had zero issues until two days ago. 

I washed my car and after drying I use the air compressor to blow out the hidden water in those tiny nooks.  When moving the air over the left tail light the cent reflector came loose but went back into place.  I can't leave things like this and need a remedy.

I'm thinking of using silicone or some other type adhesive.   Would like to hear your thoughts for on whats best for plastic.

Thanks

Perhaps a picture would better describe your exact problem.

Mine did the same thing. They were just glued in instead of being heat melted in place like the original. I used clear 2 part epoxy to reattach them.
