Silicone. You can get a small tube of it for around 2 Bucks.

Couple of small dabs of acrylic glue would hold and would hardly be visable.

yeah, the glue they use to put together acrylic fish tanks, super clear and super strong. Any large aquarium shops (for like show tanks and salt water fish) should have it.

*redneck voice*ahhhaha concrete or duck tape*/voice*

no im kidding though

rivits look awsome but id stick to things that leave the window so it can be removed even rivits look the best
