The lenses are polycarbonate and the cases are ABS.

You will have to use a Sealing compound with gap filling properties ad the 2 substrates are not chemically compatible. ABS - Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, Polycarbonate or PC. Look up the 3m / Scotch or Loctite websites for more details.

I would use loctite 452 Prism after acetone prep (which will mar the surface of the Polycarb) or THD (an industrial solvent), or failing that there's always sikaflex

excellent work..

lol at the frat house..

Yeah, they're all around here. I think we have 60+ here at the University of Illinois.

I'm surprised no body caught the CB antenna.

Thanks for all the compliments too, I'm happy with how they turned out. The LED set will probably be done over winter break.
