I found an earlier topic from a year ago on this issue. I noticed a couple of days ago that my driver side headlight is totally loose and flopping ...the metal brackets both above and below have come loose from the great gob of expoxy on the front cap. The passenger side is still solid, but the passenger side fog lamp is slightly loose. I put a wire tie around the fog lamp to keep it from totally falling, and managed to get a bungee cord around the headlight bracket and secured above to stabilize it a bit. But there is extremely limited room behind the cap on my coach ...basically a one-arm operation. The is a little better access from the bottom, but it is a bit of a reach. If I am able to get to it, can I use JB Weld, etc to attach the metal to the original epoxy? ...if I remove the epoxy from the fiberglass there is quite a large area to fill (there is a LOT of epoxy there) and getting the light properly aimed would be a serious problem. There is a pic of my light and bungee job ...and some view of the tight access ...on my website at http://www.pjrider.com/HeadlightBracketBungee.jpg
My engine access door has been reglued twice, and I had to put a bolt through the fiberglass on the lower rear corner of the driver side front fender well to secure the fiberglass where it was loose from the metal underneath. The use of glue and double-sided tape is a real problem in holding a vehicle together...
