Rubber trim around headlights, Its falling off, what can I do Options

[RbrtNdrws]

Hi,
I was just wondering what I could do about my headlights.

There is a black rubber trim that goes around all of them, and they seem to be coming off.. Would ordering replacement trim fix this??

The trim does not appear to be broken, its just loose so I always push it back in a bit...


Thanks,
Rob

they just do that. if it really bothers you, you can take off your front bumper and adjust the clips that hold it on. although they will eventually come loose again anyway

or superglue them and forget about it.

Until you have to replace a headlight.

you talking about the rubber around the headlight? mine started coming off too, used super glue and it worked perfectly.

Thanks guys that was fast .. Um I'm not sure if I want to superglue it.. What if I replace the headlight like jgreening said... Will I have to order a new one? (the rubber piecet that is..)

I'm glad to know that it's a common problem, I thought it was maybe cause my cars 11 years old..

superglue it. on the RARE event that you need a new headlight (which is very unlikely unless you are in a wreck, in which case you'll probably need a new seal anyway...), the trim is only 8 bucks. i had to order some for my high-beams not long ago.

same thing is going on with me...

but its only my one rubber thing... My other one fell off
I needs to get more

[pr_caralho]

Happened to me to, i just carefully put it back and did what the other ppl did

[popstar]

i used a rubberized glue......

holds it in place, but you can get the rubber rings off if ever you want with a sharp blade !!!!!

Nope, they will remove easily if you use superglue, i useed it, and still removed myne easy (ruber surounding) Superglue wount stick to glass too hard, but it will help to hold the surounding in place.

or superglue them and forget about it.

Amy(amysmojo) also doesn't have them on her car.

I glued mine on using spray on 3M glue, and it's worked perfectly for me.

goop glue

i have the same problem...

[BBoYRuGGeD]

rubber glue gun thats what i used and it hasnt popped up to bother me since

[hellsyphon]

if your missing the metal clip that holds the ring in place just get a flexible piece of metal and bend it in the same way and it holds it in place, well at least for me

[RbrtNdrws]

thanks guys, I'll try supergluing it..

Also, Coomer I sent you a PM but I dont know if you received it.. I had a question about something.
