ok, the piece on my drivers side door (see pic) is coming off and im not sure what to do. The peices that hold the little white clips are breaking, the pieces that are actually attached to the panel. So i really cant just go and buy more white clips because they wont go on.

I really dont want to have to buy a new one so does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem? I dont see how a screw would fix this without being obvious.


Ok, part two of my thread

take a look at these two pics,

now look at the same piece i was asking about at the top, there both different. Im guessing that one is from the 2ga and one from the 2gb but which one is the right one for the 2gb? if it is the drivers side thats wrong i'll just buy a new piece so they match.

i once saw a webpage that you could buy all oem parts on, i saw the link here somewhere but dont remember it does anyone know what im talking about? if so please post the like or pm me.

Thanks for all your help.

Pull the piece off and fix the little "slides" that the clips sit in using a plastic epoxy or something of the sort. Then replace the broken clips. Take your time and do it right- do NOT glue the clips to the panel. The passenger side is wrong, that is off of a talon. Ditch that one and buy a 2gb eclipse doorcap. I had to go to the dealer for mine.
 
The one on the drivers side is the correct piece. I'm not positive but I think the one in the second picture is from a Talon. It pretty much sucks for you because if you want the right one's your going to have to replace them both.


EDIT: Scrymerr beat me to it. I forgot to add that one of my clips was broken and I basically melted it back together with an old soldering iron then put some epoxy on it. It been like that for probably 4 or 5 months and it's still holding up.
 
thanks guys, if anyone has the url to that website it would be great.
Thanks,
Zac
