Never silicone. Its a decent sealant horrible adhesive.
Double sided gorilla tape works amazing for lots of stuff like this. Sand first with #36 grit.

5200 is a whole different beast. They glue whole boats together with this stuff. Hell, every second seam on my 12' inflatable zodiac boat has 5200 on it and they hold better than some of the factory "welded" seams have. My oarlocks are attached to the surface with 5200. I use it in the boat in creeks and rivers so it takes a lot of stick and rock damage.
Any dealer techs from the early 80s may remember that Volvo engineers wanted all glove box doors that came off sent back to Sweden. Warranty required replacement of the door. All the doors were loaded into some conexes and sent back along with a tube of 3m super weatherstrip adhesive. Engineering said the glue smelled very bad and recommend not to use.
Windshield urethane works great. So does 3M body seam sealer. I usually have a tube of each around, therefore, one or the other gets used to put the doors back together.
That's a cool story. Is that what precipitated the reinforced hinge and latch arrangement we see on 93's?
