Tivo man logo on front of new Tivo Series 2 not sticking

Archived from groups: alt.video.ptv.tivo (More info?)

Yeah, there's an opening (clear) in the white frosting behind the front
panel which lights the Tivo logo. If it wasn't there (completely
frosted white), there would be no problem, just an indentation where
the Tivo logo goes. Without the logo in place, with the logo light even
in dim, you get a blast of light through the break in the frosting.

I posted here a few months back asking why after a recent upgrade the
light got brighter despite being set on dim. It was my wife who
noticed the logo had come unstuck and thus the light was a lot
brigher. Duh! I have only tried Zap-a-gap and didn't work. I am sure
some other rubber glue will though. For now the light is off until I
get around to fixing it.

Personally, I'd just leave it off.

Any reasonable adhesive should stick the little guy back on. I'd
probably try Duco cement or something like that.
