Help!! Door panel clips

vivaladav · 07-17-2015, 03:22 PM

I can't figure out how to pop these in its upsetting me car came like that

not sure if i'm 100% here but on the older ones a simple hammer fist would knock them in.

if the "clip" is slid off and no longer lines up you may have to take the panel off more to get at it and line it up.

this will sound crazy but i use to grab the door handle and just pull the whole damn panel off like an animal rather than hurt my fingers digging them in there.

now i have these for my modifications and they're awesome:

damn it, one more thing. if the car "car came like that" then they should fix it for free if you don't want to. hell, they would likely fix it for free even if it didn't come like that.

that is all.

I tried doing that and it doesn't go in

The top clip in the picture is broke, you'll probably have to replace that one, that's why it won't stay in.

It broke when I tried to bang it in. Then I asked for help
