Final text: "lens cover adhesion tests" should be ok. Note lens cover, not the other way round

Don't really like it. Full sentence could be: Concerning the lens bonding, the existing test method is replaced by the test described in annexe 1
Note from asker:
Glace here is used for "cover lens"...
I've been considering "adhesion retention" or "bonding retention"... Any thoughts?
Peer comment(s):

neutral François Crompton-Roberts : Surely "glaces" in this case is "windows", "windscreen", not glass.Would "glazing adhesion tests" serve?

The question clearly states "feux d signalisation"
agree Kari Foster : adhesion test for indicator light covers (or does it mean the lens??)

Often with indicators the "lens" as such is part of the cover. Not the case as with headlights where a more complex lens is required, hence in glass and ot plastic.

window bonding/cementing integrity test

everyone knows how hard it is to glue/bond/cement glass. Integrity is the word for "tenue". Bonding or cementing will make use of glue or cementing compound. Windows speaks for itself as glass (never heard of plastic windows yet) and the word "glace" designates "window(s)" in car and truck industry
Note from asker:
Yes, Bashiqa, plastic glass for the cover lens...
Peer comment(s):

neutral Bashiqa : The question says "glaces plastiques" n'est-ce pas
