Default broke the lens off the corner of usdm headlights

I was trying to pull my corner lights out because I wanted to put amber bulbs in there because the pale yellow/white bulb looks weird with my super white headlight bulbs.

Well, I got the necessary screw off and I tried to pull out the assembly like it said to in the owner's manual but it would not budge until the lens just ripped off the assembly exposing the diffuser thing.

So, my question is:

What should I use to put the lens back on? First thing in the my head was super glue but I don't think it'll last. Maybe there's some automotive glue out there.

Any suggestions. Thanks.

Thanks. I can get that at any auto parts or hardware store?
My friend also suggested epoxy. Which one would be better?

Epoxy and Silicon glue are similar, i'd go with the silicon. You can get them at any local auto parts store. Just look in the section with JB weld and glue products. My lens came off to but I was unlucky and never found the lenses, so I am just gonna order a new set.

if you want your corner lights to match your superwhite headlights then i would put some led lights part # 194-hw on http://www.jamstrait.com. i would use silicon or just buy some new clear corner lenses off ebay for 10 bucks
