I seem to be suffering from broken clips syndrome. I broke one of my trunk targa top clips a week or two ago and I just found that the clip that holds the rain tray drain/spring break beer funnel in place is also broken. Any recommendations on what glue to use to dry to get these back together? I tried epoxy on the targa clip but I think the break was to clean and the epoxy didn't have anything to "grab" on to. Wandering if model glue, the type that fuses the plastic together, would work better. Any suggestions would be great! or maybe I'm the only one this has happened to...

There is a special plastic repair kit that uses a powder and CA (superglue) to bond plastics and fill.
I've been told you can use baking soda as a filler with CA, but haven't tried it. Give it a shot. The color will even be about the same. If you need a new upper clip I do have them, but I'm betting you won't need it. -mark |
