Lightbulb Glue suggestions for broken seat belt guide?

I hear that the plastic seat belt guides are a common broken item. Mine is actually just cracked and would be easy to reuse with a little ingenuity.

Can anyone recommend a type of glue to use on that kind of plastic? Would it be epoxy? Super glue? Elmer's? Wood glue?

I would think some kind of super glue would work alright but they only cost like $8 form the dealer so you make the call.

I kept breaking mine, so I made them out of metal. They won't break anymore.

I tried finding a part number for them a while back, and couldn't find one. I just ended up using epoxy. Holds better than you would imagine. Only problem is that it's an eyesore.

These (and lots of other 4th Gen interior pieces) are now discontinued. I should have bought a couple of spares when I had the chance. Your best bet would be an auto salvage yard, or eBay. Failing that, try "Gorilla Glue", I've heard its really good.

Lucky for me, I have one spare loop; unfortunately, its for the passenger side.
