I like to mix in some short lengths of fiberglass with the
epoxy. It provides the strength while the epoxy provides the
"glue" holding everything together. An example is repairing the
ashtray cover on my 1993 Mazda Miata (with 300,000+ miles). I
repaired it at least two years ago, and it is still holding up.

I put a dap of epoxy on the studs and the base. I put a little
inside the actual stud where it meets the base. Next I put the two shell
pieces together and held it in place with a rubber band. After 24 hours I
removed the screws and added more epoxy around the studs for additional
strength. I also epoxied in the broken cable retainer. Just make sure you
don't put epoxy where it might interfere with the electrical parts of the
cord.
