So my new S5 has landed, but the loose rubber around the front wheel is driving me crazy! What would be best to reattach it? Also are the grips from D200 and D300 etc the same, would be useful to get a Nikon one with the red flash to distinguish my IR S5 from my normal one! (S5 is a D200 body in case anyone didn't know)

That shoe goo is good stuff but if the grip has been loose for a while, you'll find it may well have stretched to a point that it will never now sit properly in it's recess and will continue to detach. You may find you end up buying new grips. I'd suggest paying the extra and going for genuine Nikon/Fuji ones which will come with their own adhesive. Learnt the hard way trying to save money on this.

This appears to be the situation I find myself in, I took the grip off completely to clean the old adhesive off and it just won't go back properly. New D200 grip ordered. :thumbs:
