What glue to stick on headlight glass?

This morning my headlight glass fell off (i only just touched it honest!) so I'm wondering what glue or sealer is recommended to stick it back on?
Thx.

A good silcone based adhesive/sealant should do the trick.
Hold the glass in place with tape for a day while the sealant cures.

Such as one used to construct Aquariums or one used in the double glazing industry.

I find any of the clear silicone sealants have incredible adhesive properties.

I've remembered, you can pick up small tubes of Aquarium silicone at most tropical fish shops.

I used impact adhesive to bond the glass on mine & it's been in there for 3 years with no problems!

Sikaflex is also a good bonding silicone, available from most good building supplies/screfix etc. Just don't get it on anything you wnt to keep, It will stick anything to anything and doesn't peel off very easily.
