Hi Guys!!! After searching and not finding an answer do I come from out the shadows in need of help with the neon light mounting studs.
So, this past weekend I found the neon light hanging from the trunk to the WF by only 1 stud while the other studs were still in place within the trunk & fastened onto the housing mounts that were compromised. I'll amount this to a hater yanking on the light or maybe I'm closing the trunk too hard and the plastic gave way.
However, I doubt the latter because when closing the trunk lid I often like to "bounce" it gently thanks to the ultra lightweight Glitch ballast which allows the lid to spring up faster than with the heavier OEM ballast.
In any event, I have 3M double sided tape that holds the bottom just fine but is useless on the upper half as the housing pulls away from the trunk leaving a sizeable gap. Hence the need for remounting the studs as I don't want to spend money on a housing that'll likely need repainting to WF when I'm about to buy 2 more ballasts from Glitch's wife, or from Neon Steve, for the WF & K4 as well.
So what would be the best way to remount the mounting studs back onto the housing, if at all possible?
Any and all suggestions are welcome.
Spanks!!!
