Plastic Weld is a 2 part epoxy which used to be sold at Wal Mart. Now the only place I can find it for a decent price is on Ace Hardwares web page

http://www.acehardwareoutlet.com/(ry...px?SKU=1062652

It's by far one of the BEST epoxy's I've ever encountered. I have a Kyosho Mini-Z r/c car, and I use this to re-enforce or repair my damaged plastic bodies. It dries & acts sorta like a nylon, not plastic really. It adheres WELL, and is shape-able.

BUT,.. honestly for this application what I'd really use is "Silicone II Door and Window Caulking" found at Wal Mart. It's a GREAT product and dries VERY clear!
I used it to secure my Angel Eyes in my headlights.

That's a $45 Angel Eye kit I bought on e-bay.

Could you PM me the details of that Angel eye kit? I'm currently in the process of doing my headlights in cf and I'm looking into LED's and CCFL angel eyes.
