i didnt think it would get that hot? i was gonna put it to hold part of the projector to the plastic housing. does it bond to plastic? i was gonna put epoxy but that stuff cracks really easy

They all kinds of JB Weld: http://jbweld.net/products/index.php

But the O.G. stuff will bond plastic too: http://jbweld.net/products/jbweld.php

quote from page:
What does it bond to?

Virtually any combination of iron, steel, copper, aluminum, brass, bronze, pewter, porcelain, ceramic, marble, glass, PVC & ABS, concrete, fiberglass, wood, fabric, paper -- just about any porous and non-porous material.

My projector is mounted to my TYC's using a product called Fast Steel.
Sets in 5 minutes, good to go in a few hours, and cures completely in 24 hours.
This stuff is as good as steel; as you can drill and screw into it when it hardens.

I said JB Weld because most people know that one by name.

JB weld works the same as fast seal.

and can resist high temperatures.

thanks. i got jb weld, so does it set fast, because i really didnt wanna take the lights apart or off the car due to all the wires being spliced already. i was hoping i could hold the light upright and just drip some inside the hole, then once stops moving just put the light back on.
