I was removing the front panels, where the speakers are, and I had two screws that just turned and would not come out. I pried the screw, and the stay out with plans to put them back into the fairing with some JB Weld. The problem is that I messed one up while getting the screw out of it. I have tried to find them on the OEM parts filch, looking at the fairing, and the meter filches, with no luck. Does anyone have a source for this part, or do you have to order the whole fairing? Also, what is it actually called? lol Any help would be appreciated.

JB weld will not stick to the fairing. ABS black plastic glue will.
  I bought them over the counter at Honda.

meathead, thanks for the lead to the part number. I was so busy looking for them on the parts filche that I forgot to check the generic parts page that I saved.


da prez, thank you for the information about the ABS black plastic glue. I have never heard of it before. Where might I find it. I have used J B Weld on them before. Seems like it might have been the same ones that are giving me a problem now. lol  I thought J B Weld would fix anything, kind of like Duck tape 2funny

I recently did the same job with regular 30 minute 2 part epoxy (from the hobby store for my model planes) and it held great. I put some Vaseline on the screws and put them in while the glue dried.

Just an update. Tried two Honda shops to see if they had any of the inserts. Neither one had them, so at the second one, I had them order me about 5 of them. Should be in some time Tuesday.

Thank you all for the help and information. Mike in AR

I used super glue gel. They are still holding 5 years later.

ABS black plastic glue is a plumbing product. A good hardware store or plumbing supply. ONLY black glue , not multi use.

I used anti seize. A small amount on the screw. They have a shoulder, so you just need to tighten till they stop, don't tighten them more.

Everything you did was right.
