JB weld or maybe quick-set metal putty might work I suppose. Did not consider that. I had thought of welding but my skills are, eh, a bit under-developed in that department.
There is no quick or painless visit to the dealer, two hour round trip and they are about $25 each apparently.... One of those Mercedes part-price anomalies that make you go HUH?
