Anyone know how this goes back in. One of me lads was getting some paving slabs out of the back yesterday and caught the plastic trim and popped it out. It pushes down but comes straight back up. Have tried me hammer but feels like something is stopping it. Rave is very vague

There are tabs that take a screw inboard of the end,there are six in total along the length of the trim, ask me how I know. Can't upload a photo,no storage tablet tells me.:rolleyes:

Following on from what @Ratae said, not sure about the P38 but the L322 has what looks like pop fasteners. Check nothing has snapped off in a hole .
 
Thanks its the end thats popping back up and looking at the diagram theres a screw there
I'm probably looking at it incorrectly but........ here it comes..... do you mean a horizontal screw coming through it? Or a screw that goes down through it and has broken?
No need to know, just curious :D
 
Update all sorted. Took cover off as @tomcatalan suggested. 2 end screw plastic retaining things cracked so screws come out

Couple off small washers and everything back in place

Thank you one and all. Big plus wasn't a strain so she who must be obeyed was happy:D

Good job and glad it wasn't straining.
It also answers what I was asking. :) Yours appear to be horizontal. Whereas , from what I see the L322 has vertical. Just hope I never find out :eek:
 
I was just looking at those broken clips and thinking if i had a 3d printer a nice piece could be made to go round the the bit and over it instead of washers i might have to have a word with my mate and see if he could do some thing.

Yes pretty straight forward really. Moral of this is though, don't put a dozen slabs in the back of your car:D:D

The clips are all part of the panel, its all one plastic peace so if they snap off complete replacement. I got away lucky
