Im planning on Restoing my 71 Challenger Tailight Panel. I have textured Argent from Dave's. Reflectors from Laysons. Was wondering how to attach the reflectors.
Standard reply is double sided tape. Spoke w 3 M and they said they didnt have anything for that application.
Pretty sure there is a foil like film behind the cracked lense.
Was thinking about Gorilla glue ( clear) or JB weld ( clear ) . Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

JB Weld will do it! Be difficult to ever take it apart again. But if it's all new, aught to last another 54 years!

There is definitely a reflective foil in there.
Sorry I can't exactly remember how I attached one of the reflectors on my car.

I think I glued the reflective foil sparingly to the lens with clear glue - then stuck the reflector to the panel with thin double sided tape.
