Default How to fix Busted plastic?

Both brackets that hold my headlights inside my fenders are broken. Is there someway to repair these. The repair wont be seen without getting under the ATV. By the way it's on a '98 400 Foreman.

I find that using a soldering iron to weld the plastic back together gives a strong join
Shave a sliver of fender of from somwhere else you wont notice to use as a filler rod if required.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Every time I have busted my plastic, i have always turned to super glue, make sure it is the water proof type, so it won't peel off every time you go through a water hole. This type of glue can be purchased at wal-mart in the sporting goods, or a Tractor supply company store. It is sold in a 5-gallon bucket {$12.00}. I'm glad to help you anytime you need it.

normally i would use cable ties which you can buy at Walmart, Dollar Stores, and kind of hardware places. Or i like to use a glue called Goop or Epoxy they are real strong plastic bonders. Also i forget what the name of the stuff we used to fix the center consol in our Chevy Blazer, but we got it at Advanced Auto Parts, and it fixes plastic and is has a PSI rating of i think 1000 lbs. this is some real strong bonding S@*^.
