Hope everyone's doing well around here. I have an 08 model with one of the rear parking sensors / proximity sensors that are falling in. I've removed the bumper once and found that the only thing holding all of them in are pieces of rubberized tape. I looked online because that didn't seem quite right and sure enough, that's how it's done. So I bought some gorilla super tape and double sided tape, set it back in, and reinstalled the bumper. It seemed to hold well at the time but unfortunately, it's falling out again after about ten spectacular miles. before I do something drastic with a hot glue gun and JB weld, I wanted to drop by and see if anyone had any other ideas they may have had success with in the past.
I saw a post from 2015 that said their was a lock ring that holds them in place but I'm thinking that may be for something different since there doesn't seem to be any way for one to stay on to secure it at all. Or maybe I need to rethink working on cars any more. Either way, any help is appreciated!
2008 Base model if that helps at all.
I found this, which is what I think the 2015 post was talking about but mine aren't that same style: GM Part # 88891836 - GM Genuine Parts Parking Assist Alarm Sensor
Added an image of what mine look like for reference.
