I've been eyeballing these plastic welders and I guess I need to just get one. My poor car is very old and brittle

It Only works on Thermoplast plastik but Not on duroplast or elastomer

nice, maybe a 2 part epoxy over the top if its not just a "lasts long enough for customer to forget you when it breaks again"
oh yes
While this is not a bad fix, I find that the special black powder with glue works much better. Don't know what it is called but I have glued many plastics with that stuff and after that they break elsewhere 🙂 I use Visbella Speedyfix, but I think any other brand would be great.

Why are you grunting so hard when clipping the legs off? Are you really in such a bad shape? Holy hell

Turn it the other way if at all possible. The pins should line up with the crack, not span them. Span them like you did, you only have one wire crossing the gap. Line the pins up, and you have 5 wires crossing the gap, each with an embedded loop providing hold. Plus you hold more distance to boot, you'll get more repair from the same supply of clips.
