Default Eyelid adhesive

I'm assuming that the prior owner of the car had applied those eyelids to the headlights and they're not stock. They look cool and would like to keep them, but both have started "peeling off" slightly from the headlights on one end and would like to apply adhesive again. Which product is the right one to use?

Thanks,
Dimitris

Eyelids are not stock.
Try using double sided 3M tape. Pick it up at Lowes.

Just take them off, give the headlights a good buffing and enjoy your new found beauty

The previous owner of my car had eye lids on it. The adhesive they used caused the head lights to stress crack like crazy. hopefully yours aren't the same underneath.
