Thank you! Will give that a shot. Was thinking something similar but like the JB Weld idea

Thank you both!! JB Weld has worked so far and I expect it to finish the job without trouble. Another thought which has now come up is that this radio has no back. A couple videos I’ve seen spoke of reproduction backs...one was even for a Hippo. Haven’t been able to find a link for where to purchase one. Does anyone have info on where to find a link??

Hey Bogey2300, do you still have your original speaker to your Hippo? What is wrong with it?
