Got a quick reminder driving into the garage when it hit the roof overhang. Bent the flexible part of the arms, which can be straightened, but worst of all, the little roller thingies are gone. Trevor Reid The Skylight Guy's site mentions super gluing small buttons on or clamping a split washer on the spot. I've never had any luck with superglue and not sure how to do the split washer thing. Any suggestions? Please.
