I got tired of tape/glue failing to hold the housing on. And when the housing is off, and you brake, the light shines in rear view mirror and is annoying/safety hazard.

So...I fashioned side tabs out of metal - @ 1 in long by 1/2 in wide. Drilled 2 holes in each tab - near the end. Using small machine screws, I attached the housing cover to the base. The tabs fit into the indent where the tabs normally go on the base.

Barely noticeable. Keeps the housing on tight, free of rattles.
