I check the archives before i posted my question. I mostly found info on cleaning and bleaching. I found one that suggests drilling up thru the teeth. I'm not really excited to do this one i think i would take a chance of distroying my panel if drilling is not right on. I would like other input.

Thanks

I bondo a 3/8" bolt into the brain cavity with chopped glass and resin mixed in. I usually make two to three pours with the fiber glass. I also put a small amount of hot glue on the bolt to hold it in place in the cavity at a 90 degree angle (this holds the bolt in place prior to pouring the glass). WORKS FOR ME!
