    Default Couldn't have been that easy...

Mine didn't and need to be re-attached. What's the best adhesive to use that won't come loose?
    Can't take credit for all the door panel pics, the first two are someone else's 535 I believe. Do yours look like the one below? My panels are a bit different, with fewer clips and a more solid 'anchor'. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gorilla Glue (see below, below pic). I used it for my door panel vinyl fix, skate ski binding fix, fiance's ring fix, etc. etc. and it seems to be a very strong glue. Just remember to follow the instructions and moisten one surface.





    Best of luck,
