what to use for eyebrow installation?

I was wondering what kind of glue should be used to install the eyebrows. What will I do If I need to change a light? What did you guys use?

Thanks

Double sided 3M tape should do the trick.

I would like them as flush as possible, so wouldn't the tape make them stick out. What kind of tape, the same ones that are on the ventshades? If I glue, would it be possible to remove them? If I tape, wouldn't it be stolen easily, I live in the Bronx, where HIDs are stolen every 2 mins. lol.

You should be able to buy some real thin 3M tape somewhere. I think with glue you may not be able to get them off without having a lot of headaches. As for the tape, the eyebrows would be very hard to get off without destroying them, which would probably deter theft. The tape is like the stuff used on Ventshade, but you may even find a thinner roll. I believe with the tape the lids will sit quite flush. I'm planning on adding a set myself sometime.

but the only double sided tape I've seen that is weather proof is the 3M that is the same size on the ventshades, I know theres regulare 3M thin double sided tape but not for outdoors.

I heard someone say use some kind of epoxy before. What do you think, and where would I find that from?

Thanks

Hmmmm....not sure I can help. I'd check with a local body shop or something like that. They should be able to steer you in the right direction. I know the weatherproof tape you speak of isn't too thick because Ventshades sit very tight to the cars they are installed on. I'm sure some of the guys here could help with the epoxy idea if they check out your thread. GL with however you decide.
