it may seem silly but i cant stick my new 3rd brake light [bought at abang's shop at setapak] to the rear window of my wira a/b
ive tried using the stock double sided that came with the light..n after few hours it tanggal. i try using new strong double sided from hardware shop.oso tanggal. then i use UHU glue...n then i got pissed n use superglue gam gajah! the friggin light just wont stay stuck to my rear window.

yes. during diy i did press very tightly on the light to make sure the glue or tape bonds...at lis 2 3 mins i hold. then i put selotape on it so have extra support. it stays for a while. yet still tanggal. best was after pasang one night, tmorrow balik keje oredi fall off..

First you clean the rear glass again. This time u must use thinner or glue remover to remove the supa glue u used. Hopefully you don't damage thye rear demister.

Next you need to buy 3M automotive double sided tape. You can find this at spareparts shop or from some hardware shops. Its dark grey in color and cost about RM18. I tried so many brands of black outdoor double sided tape, but none of them can last heat/cold/humidity and dust as good as the 3M one.

Remove the old damaged/ useless tape from the brake light. Further remove with thinner if you cannot get the glue off. Next use soap water and clean the area before you stick the 3M tape. Even if the tape is small strips, you can align them together to make a big piece.

Clean the glass with soap water, leave dry. Then fix the brake light. If done correctly should last forever. hahaha.

The 3M double sided tape damn good i used it to replace the double sided tape of the car flag poles. I tell you the flag torn to bits, but the pole still stucks there!
