Body/Trim: - Loose door panel - Page 2

Hi just adding to my question, here is a photo - it has happened on both driver and passenger sides. Volvo quoted me 5K+ for new panels! I went to an upholstery place and they said they can't do it. I found some on ebay but what if the same thing happens?!
Thank you

If you take apart the door, you can put something to put pressure behind that panel, like a carton egg box, something like that. That way you dont even need glue because as soon as you mount the door and its bolts, the pressure of what you put behind will take care of holding on the panel for you.

Did that with all 4 of mine and worked like a charm.
