Default How do you fix this?

Does anyone know how to fix this side panel? It doesn't seem to have any clips that attach it to the door sill. The seatbelts seem to pull it out when you use them. Here's a picture of the problem.

same thing happened to mine when i ran my wiring for my subs back there. its a pain in the ass trying to get the little plastic clips lined up, and i broke one of them in the process. take it apart a little farther and you'll have a good idea what im talking about. and yes its a pain in the ass.

i have a similar problem with my left front pillar, when i mounted my tweeters i couldn't get it to fit right, the other side fits perfect, but that side just won't stay secure, so i crammed a folded up piece of dynamat between the dash and pillar and it fits now, but doesn't look good if you look at it from outside the passenger side
