What to use to hold headlight or tail light plastic cover in place?

Hey Guys,

I want to paint my headlights to match the color of my lancer. What should I use to hold headlight cover in place? Glue? Adhesives? Advise?


Not sure if this belongs in 'how to' or 'Lancer tech' or in 'show-n-shine. Move if needed.

i moreso ,meant that i was gonna take them apart and paint the headlight housing. I will be using a heat gun to get the clear "cover" of the head light off but need advice on re-applying it.

thx
