You can use a screw or silicone adhesive.=C2=A0 Not much pressure on it=

Is there a recommendation for the type of adhesive? I was looking at=20
one of my other ends and it looks like it's held by both sheet metal=20
screws and adhesive.
That's most likely a sealant, not an adhesive (although many sealants
can be used as an adhesive).
Get some silcone caulk.
Generally they are "crimped" on and sealed with sealant. Sometimes
"pop" rivetted as well. That's what "I" would do, being I have a LOT
of small rivets left over from various projects - mostly "plane shaped
objects" built by friends.
