Default Windshield wiper cowl clips broke

Anyone know what glue works on the wiper cowl? Took mine off to clean things out and found one of the clips on the back was partially broke. Now it’s completely broke and thought if I could glue it back on I would order a new one since I think it helps hold it against the windshield.

I’ve got a couple broke on mine also. I never tried to repair them though so I can’t help with what works. The cowl isn’t going anywhere if you just leave it alone so that’s why I never bothered fixing or replacing the cowl.

Thanks Mark. I’m going to try some of JB Welds plastic repair on mine. I’ll let you know how it works. Still trying to work something out on the grille. Thanks again for the pics.

Good luck with those grills. I'd love to see them on something else. Hope the plastic repair goes well. Maybe a plastic welder would work also.

That's good stuff and should work. If it doesn't, you can probably get some used ones from Marc at Vettenuts.
