You must not frequent this forum much! Tons of info/threads out there on what some of the perceived fixes are. Just use your search engine. Good luck.

There's a continuing thread a couple years long about this, everyone seems to have the best success with Rhino Glue.... Including me.....

Nobody's trying to be a wise guy but there are a bunch of topics that get raised quite frequently and rather than wait for someone to answer a question, it's generally easy and quicker to see if it's been addressed and see a number of helpful answers.

Easy there nOOb . . .

on the search feature. I needed to change front turn signal bulb yesterday and hit search first thing and found about 20 threads on how to do it.

I know on the window there are a couple of threads on how to support the window while the glue is drying. And also on using Rhino glue. I mail ordered a big bottle last summer and have been using it on dozens of things since first using it on our Sebring top. Keeping it around for when our '03 window falls out !!

I find that searching via Google generates better results than the search feature on this site...it may be operator error on my part...but Google works great and generally directs me here given the massive amounts of information.
