So my rear door seals keep coming off. It’s the lower portion near the wheel well. Anyone else having this problem? Both sides are doing it
(Ignore my awful lug nuts)

If I remember correctly those little fasteners go up the length of the strip(is there 3 or 4?). Maybe someone removed the strip for some reason and broke them all.

I’ll have to clean them out. And get a better look. Road debris is caked up in there because it’s so close to the tire.

Get some clear silicon caulk, apply just a bit of it to the back of the molding, put it back into its proper location, and then wait 24 hours. It won't come off again.

Great idea! Don’t know why I didn’t think of this as I use caulk as adhesive all the time!

Was thinking this if I can’t get the clips to secure it properly.. just didn’t wanna do anything too permanent

even though permanent is the goal I guess lol

I used this for the vertical moldings at the rear top vertical edge of the 2 front doors of my '07, where the moldings kept working loose. I have not had an issues since.

And, for those who do not want permanence, you can still remove these molding, if you use only a small amount of caulk (which is all you really need, to hold the moldings in place).
