Headlamp “crown”
Headlamp “crown”
I totally have overseen that ,and by now the headlamp is already painted so pointwelding is a no go.
Is there a way to repair the crown points or do I have to remove the old crown by dremel or mini-saw.
I already bought a new crown, but if there is a way to repair the old one ,please tell me

I dremel-ed off the broken “points” , dremel-ed off two of the points from the new crown.
Then I bonded then on the old crown with special metal glue, wich I’ve used before and proved its quality.
The ignition plate fits like a glove .
