ORIGINAL: Sinister


i used permatex clear silicone adhesive sealant. its waterproof, and flexible. I had redone mine in april, and since then it hasn't budged.

any silicone sealant that is equivalent in qualities should do the trick.
Thanks for the tip !!

I've tried a couple of different glues with no permanent success. I even tried super glue. I was going to go buck wild and use something like Liquid Nails next, but I'll try your suggestion before I break out the big guns.

LOL !!

you would think that this common of a problem would have been addressed by Dodge.... but i guess for something so simple they really didn't care...

Yes. Typical dodge ram engineering. I do like the truck but I have never had so many little troubles with a truck. I have owned ford, chevy, and a gmc. The dodge seems more like a truck to me.

Just a newbie here but yeah mine fell off. If you want it to stay permenently use windsheild adhesive (the stuff that holds your windsheild in) problem solved and its black so it never shows up on the edges
