I don't know what Givi cases were made of ~20 years ago, but they are injection molded and most moldable platics are tricky to glue. ABS and PVC are glue-able, but need different glues. Polypropylene and polyethylene (polythene on your side of the pond) are close to un-glueable AFAIK. > > Car body repair kits should provide the necessary materials. I didn't think of auto body repair kits, that's worth checking. Thanks for writing! bob prohaska
