Body Kit and leccy meter cupboard
Came home, stopped, got out, door got wedged on the edge of the white plastic electric meter box and partially pulled body kit from drivers door - only come away from one clip thankfully.
Lots of swearing, kicking of cat, smashing of mugs, heads against door frames etc.
It won't just push and clip back into place and I can see that theres the round clip attached to some oblong metal bracket all attached to b'kit but nothing on the door.
What do I need to do to fix/clip back on the door please folks?
Thanks

Seriously though, its just little white plastic clips that hold the kit on. Go to a citroen garage and they will sell a pack of clips for very little.
Just replace the broken plastic clips or bond the body kit bad on. No big deal.

If the clips not broken it should push back in, they tend to slide around on the bracket and may just be out of line with the hole..

As above clips are helpful but if not use tiger seal or stikaflex

should clip in nice and easy, I'd just go get some new clips and finish the job in about 20 seconds.

Take the clip off,put some tigerseal on the clip.Let the tigerseal cure for a bit then push the panel back on mate.

just had a closer look what looks like the metal bracket dropped on the floor so looks like has broken away from the body kit itself
that'll be a load of tiger seal required then!
