Door rubber, plastic and vinyl all came apart! Can I glue this?
I have the lower door sill plastic coming up and also the rubber inner door trim is also coming out. It seems like the vinyl cover on the inside side of the car is also coming up.
My question is how do I situate all this back together perfectly? Do i meed to buy a new plastic door sill piece with clips and reclip? Even if i get that back on perfect, i dont think the rubber door seal will stay in place. Same with the vinyl covering.
Is there a good glue that will hold that rubner door trim and that peeling door vinyl in place?
What do I need to make all this look factory? I don't want to take this car back to a shop! Thank you guys.

I wouldn't do anything (especially glue) until someone smarter than either of us chimes in. I assume those items 'snap' or 'press' fit...... Maybe look for a carpet removal/install video that might detail it?

Hi HoneyYak,
Both parts just snap-in. I don't recall but turn them upside down and see if a clip is involved. Gluing them may be problematic as they are released from time to time to replace some of the rubber seals around the door. Have you tried just pressing them into place?

I just did this repair, very easy. You will need:
(5) 999 507 365 40
(5) 999 702 202 50
Gently pull the plastic sill up, remove the old grommets and replace with new. The sill simply snaps into place with these pieces as Andy said. I purchased these items from Pelican to let you know.

Had the same issue on mine and ordered the replacement parts last night. Tonight, I pulled back the plastic sill plate and had the same white plugs showing. Pulled 2 out of the grommets with a needle nose and slipped back into the slot in the upper plastic plate, aligned with the rubber grommet holes and it clicked right in! You should be able to do the same. Thanks all, this has been bugging me for a while!
