Fairing screws
Good day all. I was trying to take my front fairing off, (2011 Electra glide} and while removing one of the three screws that hold the windshield in place, one of the screws pulled the nut out of the inner fairing. What can I use to put it back in place? Should I use a glue or a two-part epoxy? Thank you

....go to lowes/home depot and pick up "T" nuts that fit your screws, CAREFULLY install windshield and fairing, ALL THE WHILE leaving a small gap for a drop or two of super glue to hold, tighten, allow to set overnight, disassemble next day, re-enforce "T" nuts with caulk or glue. Never have to worry about them again....

I used a 2 part epoxy called all craft from a good plumbing supply , water proof and easy to use , clean everything with brake clean put a longer bolt in the insert with grease on the bolt threads mix a little epoxy put in the hole , tap in the insert , let it dry 1 hour , then remove bolt and you are done forever !! This epoxy has never failed me no matter where i use it including my jet ski !
