S4 Headlight Separation
I've had a lens come off before, but not this. Was getting condensation in the headlamp and was going to seal the lenses. When I took the cover off it was apparent the issue.
Not sure that this can be put back together as it appears to be a soft rubber seal, although if that's all that was holding it togther I'm not sure how it could stay together with the adjuster putting pressure against it.
Anyone has this issue? Can it be fixed, or is it $$$ to get another light?

you may be able to use some windshield eurethane sealant to attach the broken mount, Otherwise try some PRC Flamemaster fuel tank sealant

Thomas,
Don't know what MrMerlin will recommend, but I've used the silicone fluid that is sold for sealing windshields with great success. It has a fairly low viscosity, and you can seal around the outside of the lens where it meets the metal if you work carefully. After it's cured at room temp, install, and I've never had one leak again.
Good luck,
Gary Knox
