I need some ideas as to how to attach my light.

It is going on a flat little plastic hood that had a place for lighting but someone took it out. I was able to take the metal reflector and attached lighting fixture from an old little 10 gallon canopy (room to screw in 2 fluorescent & I didn't have to mess with any wiring or anything) but am now wondering how to attach it..I was thinking silicone the reflector to the plastic (the fixture is attached to the metal reflector) may be easy because it is small but will that work? Will it stick and if it does would the small amount of heat not work well with the silicone? I was trying to avoid making more holes and do it cheaply...I already was going to get some silicone so was wondering if it could work here too.... :help:
 
hmm...that was my original plan (screws or something) but I already need to be fixing one hole and some cracks around it and I was worried making more holes could mean more damage...it is also not something I could just buy a replacement hood for. *sighs* I will try my best to do something I guess. I really don't know yet. Thanks for the help.
