1971 Cuda side lenses
« on: November 13, 2016 - 02:03:12 PM »
One of my rear side marker lenses popped out while cruising. I ordered a new replacement. How should I mount it so this doesn't pop out again? It's almost like th repops are a little to wide to fit perfectly.

 :clueless:   I'm a little confused. . .  What do you mean . . . Popped out?   Pictures?   You mean the reflector that is glued in?

Yes, the reflector on the back passenger side next to the side lamp came out. I'm wondering what method is best to secure it to ensure it won't come out again.

what glue/adhesive are you using? I think a lighter color glue would be best to not darken the reflector, right?
