  • Any tricks on re-locating plastic trim in cargo area?

    Hi there
    Just wondering if anyone has removed (and put back) the plastic trim that covers the 3rd row seat 'tie down' section in the middle of the rear cargo floor?
    There is a small plastic disc on the body of the floor that locates onto a 'U shape' lug on the underside of the piece of trim that helps to keep it secure (along with a couple of screws in each end).

    When trying to put the trim back I cannot see how to get the disc located back into the lug where it came from - it seems to require the trim to have a large amount of force to bend it down and around a seemingly impossible angle.
    Before I break something, has anyone done this before?
    Many thanks in advance

    plastic disc on the body of the floor
    This is the top of the panel clip, you need to pull this out of the panel(needle nose pliers and gently) and refit it to the plastic trim FIRST (slides into th U shaped bit). Then it just pushes straight into the panel when you put the trim in. Screws go in last.

    If don't get what I mean I can do a pic of how it supposed to look.
