Use a dremel to drill a hole and superglue to attach it on the neck post.

Yep, pretty much as easy as that.

I'd have the new body handy so you can test the fitting. Drill, check, drill until it fits. Remember you can always dremmel more, but you can't un-dremmel if you go to far

Sound advice!

Drill it out then use 2 part epoxy to bond it on. It's there to stay.

I use suerglue... but a number of methods work. I think some people use Bluetac; which is not as permanent.

You can still remove a super-glued head, but there's the chance you might damage it.

if useing superglue get the Gel as its less messy and gives a stronger bond because it can fill the gap better
