    I will tell you what i used.........Industrial Grade Hot Glue!!! and its been at or over 110 here in mesa for the last month or more with no problems of the glue giving up! part of the reason that the glue was letting go on the windows was because the plastic tabs would flex and work themselves lose, or they would crack and that would be the cause.

    Had i any idea that i would be making these for others when i made mine i would have taken detailed pictures while i was replacing mine and made an install page to send with the kits !!!!! Didnt even know about this forum until after i made my first set. Found this forum then posted what i did to fix my problem...LOL
    on the road at the moment for the next couple weeks so when i get back home i will make up some drawing's of how to replace the clips!!
