Super glue front fog lights?

[DB Pro]

Washing the car today and I pushed a little hard on one of the front fog lights. I have pushed the whole light away from the socket. I guess it is fixed there by silicone. Can I superglue it back into position?

I woundn't take the supa glue route, I'd stick it back in with clear Silicon.

Grille? On a Griffith?
What are you guys taking?

We don't even need a BBQ grill, we eat everything raw

They're driving lights not fog lights.
Just take the other one off to match as you probably won't need them anymore.
Most driving ranges are floodlit nowdays.

Feck off to your own forum you hairy breasted bunch, you are talking to a real pro golfer you know.

heheheheheh..... lights...are so dull, might as well not have them.....

better idea is head band with 2 small maglites attached (ala Orbital)

Sorry, what front fog lights / driving lights?

My 1997 Chimaera just has headlights and indicators and nothing else.

Come on DB Pro, we need to understand the question. Chimaeras don't have fog/driving lights. Has yours got some after market lights?

[bigdods]

When you turn your foglights on do you also find that all the lights go out on the dashboard .....

Those bloody small lights under the big ones. I don't want to get too technical for you all.

Don't get uperty, we're only trying to help. I assume you mean the front indicators then?

What, you mean those orange fog lights that have an intermittent fault where they flash rather than stay on all the time?

[BD Pro]

Ah now I understand. You see my ones are not orange they are white. That is what was swaying me. I have orange bulbs inside. ANYWAY! should I use super glue to fix them back on? It seems an easy option..

No, I'd use clear silicone sealant in case you need to get them off again - like to change a bulb or something.
Silicone sealant actually makes a very good adhesive and also has good flex in it which will cope with vibrations.

In contrast, super-glue goes brittle and I would predict the lens would shake itself off again pretty quickly with super-glue.

Just as a matter of interest, if you thought they were fog lights, where did you think the indicators were?

really not being cheeky, just honestly intrigued

Or are european Chimaeras exempt from indicators, a bit like BMWs
