Default Crappy interior plastic popping out

Does anyone know the part number for the little clip that will keep this plastic from popping off? Will a new clip even stop this from happening?



thanks

Eh not sure. Off the top of my head, there is one screw down at the bottom of the door sill. And another at the top on the coat hander. That whole ******* panel is velcro. There may be a clip or two, but I just can't recall.

I pulled both sail panels to pop a few dents out on the rear quarters. (I went through the sail speaker holes)

I had to laugh when I pulled the thing apart in a matter of seconds. What a shitty design. I really don't think you could be any cheaper. Maybe it's just because I'm use to working on BMWs.

Didn't know there was a clip? - my car does the same thing. I'm going to remove my rear door sill screw that goes into the bottom part of the panel, push it back in, then try and reinstall. If someone has a fix I'd appreciate it too - drives me crazy.
