Shoe Goo (Goop?) usually works great in a lot of these situations. If you
use the silicone be sure to use the low odor kind to avoid having corrosive
ammonia fumes drifting around the cockpit while the silicone is curing.



It is not ammonia, it should be a vinegar smell and is acidic acid I
believe. But that is a good point. Use the humidity curing RTVs.


It's highly unlikely the Silastic RTV (TM) would hurt many plastics.
OTOH It might not stick well either. Nearly all RTVs use the moisture
in the air to aid in curing.
