Door cards won't clip in

[Bobby84dazzler]

Hi all. Got my first vtr and been doing odd jobs around the car that are needing done. Ordered new door card clips for the front door cards, replaced all the broken clips, put the door cards bk on and they will not stay on. It's as if the cards have become warpped and keep popping off. It's a pain and looks rubbish with them hanging off.

Anyone had similar issues and came up with a solution?

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you got the doorcard hooked over the top and slotted in?otherwise the clips won't line up.

Yeh all lined up properly. You push them in and they pop bk off. It's mainly the corners and when the door lock is. Defo the right clips. Was considering some sort of double sided tape but that would look shit and don't think it would have the strength to hold it down. ��

I've just done this on mine and had a similar issue.

Mine was, where someone had obviously done it before they had creased the lip at the top of the door by the mirror so it wasn't sitting right and also was not sitting right on the small l bracket where the door has a small arm rest crease in the panel.

I heated up the lip with a hairdryer and it went back to matching the rest of the lip. The panel then went on as it should, sat on the L bracket as it should and then the panel clips also lined up.

I also bought the clips in the ebay link, they are quite brittle so do not wack the panel but instead line them up then give them a firm push,
