one of mine was off when i got the car. All the clips were broke so I stuck it on with araldite, The handle is stuck to the card now but can still remove card being careful not to pull too far before unhooking cable. Derek

Hiya. Had to do all 4 of mine after changing all the interior including door cards. I used clear silicone.... The stuff that smells like Vinegar and skins over in about 15 mins....About 1.99 a tube....Never had a problem since.... But the best of it is, they are still removable unlike glue if ever you have to remove the card again...The silicone will peel off leaving no damage or stain.... My way anyway..

Hiya, yes, just masking tape.... I put the silicone all along the flat edges of the lugs that meet the the inside..If you know what I mean.. lmso. You will see what i mean anyway, It really is a simple fix..Plus the silicone has elasticity, so will not be undone by any vibration.... Like when you have your bass turned up.. lol.
