My left side mirror got knocked off and came apart. What glue would you recommend for gluing it back together?

A couple of years ago I finally found an LED H4 that works well in Ks. It's a good upgrade and even makes the crappy K75S headlight much better.

There's an empty hole on the left switch perch you can use with RAM mounts. That puts the GPS out of the way, but within easy reach.
