Default trunk hatch reflector

Hey guys, what product would you recommend i use to glue the trunk reflector back on? when i bought my z last yr the previous owner apparently used the reflector to close the hatch. so now some of it has come unglued and theres a gap that water can an does get in thru.

ive also tried searching for a replacement walk-through and the replacement part but havent found either. any help would be appreciated.

use mounting tape. you can source a small roll at your local autoparts store.

i'd personally use 3M VHB

btw if your reflector is only partially off and difficult to get the remaining off the car due to glue, dont force it as it will crack. just get some silicone glue in this case from your local autoparts store.
