Default I think I broke something....

I had some time today since I live in the Northeast and got snowed in to do some maintenance work on my brand new xA. I attempted to put on ventivisors I had purchased for it. 3 out of 4 of them fit very well but the last one didn't. I attempted to give it a little more force to get one end between the mirror cup and door and it cracked. Now the question I want to ask is how can I fix this or should I just get another one. Can I get only the one that I need or do I need to buy a whole new set. I was thinking maybe crazy glue it back together? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

get some pix of it, you may be able to use some clear silicone to do it.

Default Crack Pic

Here is a picture of it. Not too big but I think the crack is quite clear. I am still hitting myself over the head on this one



Thanks.

Are you wanting functionality or aesthetics?

For functionality, then give it a try and see if it leaks....if not then you're good...if it does, then some super glue or clear silicone will work for ya.


For aesthetics you need to purchase a new one. I've never seen singles for sale, only sets (you would have spares that way, but it always seems that the one you don't have a spare for is the one that breaks). You might be able to get singles too though...check with the place that you bought them from on that.

Thanks for the advice! I think I am going to try the silicon and super glue method. Go with the cheapie method first!
