The clear plastic lighting cover keeps falling off

Mark330xi · 02-05-2010, 04:54 PM

I replaced my interior lights with LED's and something happened to my clear plastic front light cover, it keeps sagging down and doesn't want to snap into place. Any tips of a DIY fix?

For a quick and dirty fix, use some tape.

Great description of which cover it is.

You broke it taking it off. Use some tape or try and order a new one from Tischer.

You come on asking for help and then get pissy when somebody suggests a fix? Pull the stick of inability out of your ass and order the part. I'd even look up the part # for you to order but your lack of an explanation has prevented me from doing that.

If you knew you broke it taking it off, why are you asking how to fix it? DIY = tape/superglue or order a new part. Obviously, that was not obvious to you or else you wouldn't have needed to post this post.

JayKay, your responses are usually awesome, but you've outdone yourself this time, lol.
