Bugger, indicator fallen out

[hot metal]

Well fallen in really. It seems to have been held in with some kind of porridge, is this usual or an aftermarket bodge. What is the best way to fix it, do I need more porridge ?

Sikaflex 221 or similar as long as its polyurethane and not silicone

What kind of porridge was you fed as a kid?

When the same happened to my Chim recently I was advised by a TVR specialist that clear silicone would be fine. What's the problem?

I have recently seen a car that had the lenses installed with silicone, 1 fell out after about a year. It was hot weather when it gave way, but even so i would rather have to only do that type of job once.

Silicone will never hold as well as polyurethane.

Both mine fell in - Araldite stopped it happening again.
