42i 2011 hatch

[John]

Hi ,
A friend of mine has a 42i , the forward heads hatch fitting to keep it closed needs to know the correct type of glue to reattach the glued on fitting anyone have experience on this

I guess it was the bonded on type which Lewmar had quite a few failures with

I ended up through bolting mine, used a security type recessed nut so it looks fine and I know won't fail...
