| Hey folks,
I have a 3144 with a partially broken prong. I attempted to fix it with MEK,
but apparently this part isn’t made with the same materials as regular pieces.
Someone then told me that it might be PVC, but I tried that glue and it also
did nothing. Does anyone have any idea what glue or chemical that I can use on
this part to make the repair?
Photo enclosed.
Thanks!

| MEK works on ABS, not that soft antenna part. Nothing really works on that.

| It costs about $25 with shipping for a used one (that hopefully isn't also
damaged). Glue costs about $2 or they may already have it.
