Default Turn Signal Stalk Broken

OK, my first real post;

The turn signal stalk on my 97 Accord has cracked through the outer plastic sleeve. What type glue will work best, a polystyrene (modelers) glue, super glue, or just live with it? I have no idea what kind of plastic it uses, and don't want to gunk it up with the wrong kind.

I'm not sure what turn signal stalk is. Do you have a pic of what you are talking about?

Sorry, thought I was being clear! Since I don't have a digital camera, here's a better description:

On the left side of the steering column is the turn signal/headlight control "stalk" (the right side one controls the wipers). Since it controls the turn signals, twists for the headlights and pulls for the bright/dim controls, it gets a lot of use. Mine has cracked but not broken off. It is still functioning, but the outer sleeve is cracked all the way through, so if I can glue the exterior, I can avoid breaking the rest of the control stalk.

Just trying to get the 2nd 100k miles out of this dependable little car!
