This is not a question, but a little hint to repair the side covers, I've just tried it and it works.

I've just repaired some serious craks on my sidecover this way.

I did put some Acetone in a glas jar, after that i did put some lego bricks there in, after they were meltet, I just put the sticky stuff in the craks and sured there was pressure on the cover, put a little extra on the backside to make it a bit more strong.

I've got this advise from a friend and it works.

I've just tried to use the same way to glue a broken tap on the same cover, tomorrow I will know if that worked, as good as the other repair did.

And now I can say: It worked on that too.

I hope someone can use this cheap advise.

good tip.

some people melts tie wraps into the crack to weld a repair
