  • Great fix-it video for plastic repair. I had one thought on the section using the "spring rings / plastic topping. Same procedure on the "inside" of the cover would leave the outside of the cover possibly "smoother" finish for later paint, etc - use plastic filler only on outside, then sand / paint. Again, great ideas on your end. Thanks!!
