Title: Need creative advise for fix
Post by: ItsaDuc on April 21, 2010, 03:55:05 AM
I know the first thing everyone will say is..."Chop it!!". But I dont want to. I like having a place to put my beer. ;D

Anyway, the two brackets that hold the rear break light have broken(thanks to the 2nd worst roads in the Country) on the beer tray. I have tried to superglue the parts and a few other various attemps, but none have worked to this point.

Anyone experience this or has an idea to fix?

Erik

I'd chop it, but if you are really against it, there are much stronger glues that will actually bond the two surfaces.  Look into those.

That must be, by far, the easiest used part to get hold of. Can't be anything but cheap.
After all - "everyone" has one laying around ;)

The rivets will be hidden under the light once installed.

OR just ask in the parts wanted for one. You can probably secure one for the cost of shipping...

Not sure which year yours is, but some beer trays have 3 mounting screws and some have 4.
