Yeah they do break dont they
If you look in your manual you'll find the part number for the whatcumajiger thingy you broke off your body. If you broke it you'll break it again so get 2 or 3 of them well your at it.

You shouldn't waste your time gluing the part over and over. Been ther don that. Just buy the part you need and you will be good to go.
