Hey guys,

I need some help.

2 of my smoked turn signal covers were missing when I purchased my bike.

So anyways I went to my local buell shop and purchased these 2 smoked turn signal covers. When putting them on one side snaps in and the other side your suppose to drive the phillips screw into it. Well its not very stable. I know if I keep it like that the smoked cover will fall off. So what is the tip for the phillips screw to go into the smoked turn signal cover? Should I just put a little bit of superglue? I know that would work, but if i ever need to replace the bulb, I will have the break the smoked cover off to do it, and would hate to go through that. Any tips guys??

Thanks

Um, wish I knew the screw size. Dang... I wouldn't use glue. Might go looking for a phillips screw. Bring the cover with you and find the right size at a hardware store. Oh, I recommend you get a stainless screw also. Don't like rust.

the turn signals are only around $5 each aren't they?
I'd just buy another one and consider it a lesson learned.

nah,, the smoke covers that protects the light signals itself are anout 2.00 each. I had two. I put the other one on, no problem. I think I had a defected one, so that prob why it never screwed in. oh well... I'll just go get another : )
