Thanks for reply...Nope doesnt weld this type of plastic to itself , to check what type of plastic it was I took off the tow point plug off the front bumper that I guess is the same material as the rest of the black part of the bumper it plugs into?....markings on back say made of PE+EPMD ( polyethylene+ethylene propylene diene monomer) , put a blob of the plastic weld i bought onto this part and next day I was able to just scrape it off with my fingernail....nutty things is this : I applied this mix on the pdc housing/mount the sits behind the bumper and forced as best possible back into the bumper yestrday and today the sensor+mount seems quite rigid when i touch it, so not sure what happened and it stuck?...I also tried stock silicon and again that just peels off this plastic...just curious what damn glue can hold this plastic to itself? the mount for the pdc seems to be part of the sensor and despite the pic showing indents for where you may think the bumper clips onto it I am sure it is not the case, its just attached by some fused plastic to the bumper at those 4 points.....
