Default C4 Help

Hey im new to this forum.....i was hoping to get some help.

I bought a 1988 Coupe with 68xxx original miles. Its been driving great and i love it. Thats not the problem. A couple nights ago my front left headlight jammed on the hood so being an 18 year old that i am i thought a little muscle would un-jam it.......this resulted in me pulling off my headlight cover......there is no damage to either item i was just wondering what sort of epoxy to use to put it back on........

Thanks,

LuNa7iC

Welcome to the Forum I don't really have a answer to your question but thought I'd say Hi and bump you back to the top. Good luck with your headlight.

My cover came off while the headlights were up. I removed the whole assembly and removed the old adhesive and with RTV and clamps let it set for a day. Two years later I can't move it.
