Unhappy tail lights coming off.

3m tape is great for emblems and ****. if you use it right it'll hold . but i'd advise figureing out a way to bolt it... i havent gotten my s5 tails yet. they come on friday.

but try 3m tape. double side. ya know?

I think he is talking about the studs that hold the taillights on, they tend to come out of the plastic. If so, then you need some epoxy!
