Trim on bottom of door

Post by sulli » Sun Dec 22, 2013 11:03 am

Getting out of the car yesterday I caught the lower trim panel on the front door and it has come away at the edge. Tried to push it back in but looks like maybe a clip (or however it is secured) has snapped. What's the best way to refix? Sticks like sh1t/no nails?

Hi Sulli,
Mine was the same when I bought it. They are easy to remove and refit if a clip has come out of one of the holes.
To remove.... Undo the tiny torx nuts at the front and back inside lips of the doors. Then the trim peice will slide back by half an inch and come off easily. Then relocate all the fitting lugs, slide forward and it should fit flush again hopefully!
