The mounts that hold my left headlight housing broke the other day and Ive temporarily put some krazy glueon there to hold it in place but I really need to replace it soon. Does anyone know how much the headlight with the entire housing assembly would go for?

Yeah, an Apoxy would work well also, but it wont last as long. (but we're talking year(s), lol) Apoxy/Epoxy are basicly just SUPER-DOOPER-Glues, lol.

Would work well; And i'm not knocking that idea 95st-celica, It is a valid point. And it's all up to EMachine for what he uses.

Lol, as said before, It really depends on what your comfortable using. I love working with fiberglass, and the fact that you seal it, then reinforce the break as so it's stornger than the rest of the ABS lol, i love that idea.

Apoxy/Epoxy, Putty, Superglue, Screwing in a Steel Bracket, Fiberglass, Duct Tape ( laugh.gif ) Are all capable of working. EMachine, it Matters what you would like to use. Everything has an advantage and a disadvantage.

lol, We're such a helpful bunch, this guy is going to goto wal mart and spend $100 on different stuff... lol, and test em all out laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Start from the top of the post and read your way down. Everyone has a different way of fixing it, lol. You can find 10 different ways to fix it here laugh.gif
