Glue for brittle 99 woodgrain bezel.
 
What glue should I use to fix my million dollar Limited woodgrain center bezel? It cracked when I took it off to fix the solder joints on my climate control unit. Got the climate control unit fixed, reflowed solder joints, cleaned switches and potentiometers with deoxit. Then I did the "flip the gear" blend door actuator mod. Fixed that too. Would have been perfect if not for the damn super brittle bezel.

Any advice?

Two part clear epoxy would be best. I'have fixed a few plastic and acrylic with it. Bought at any one of the big box stores.

I'd also recommend using a strong epoxy adhesive specifically for bonding plastics. Clean the surfaces well before sticking them together for best results.
