glazing tape, it is quick and easy, made for outdoors and you can get different thicknesses, you can get it off ebay or the link in my first post on this thread, i would not keep it to long, as i think this is one of the reasons why it falls off, because old stuff has been used to fit it in the first place. its a theory
