Superglue if you plan on it being on permanently.

Superglue will probably fall off too. Its really not that strong of stuff, and you'll most likely have to fix it every couple of months. If that happened to me I would use a two part epoxy that could be purchased at lowes or Home Depot. Just make sure you buy one that works for both plastic and metal.

Both of mine have been replaced under warranty but I will have to do the DYI once my warranty is out.
