Default Baja 252 blower vent cracked?

Ok i have a 1999 BAja 252.

now where the blower is routed (the engine compartment vents) on the side of the sun pad. they are glued with a white hard silicone or something. and they are known for cracking.

well i had one come 1/2 the way off (the crack really let go) what can i do to fix this? where can i buy this glue?

any ideas? i can not be the first person with a baja that had this problem.

I have the same problem and would love to know.

Are these vents attached by any other method or is is just the sealant?

Mine attaches with screws. They are cheap enough i replaced mine and screwed the new ones in as well.

i think you must have a differnt vent.

the ones on this boat would look like crap if screwed in, and are only held on by the adheasve.
