Door panel trim

I went to the yard today and found the trim pieces I need to get rid of the pull strap on my doors. Only problem is some of the plastic studs broke off. I was just going to get some adhesive and glue it to the door panel. Does anyone know of a good product to use? Or a better way to attach them? Thanks.

Re: Door panel trim

I would recommend using 100% Silicone. I've used it to attach emblems, side molding, and trim.

Bump.

How did it go Dan?

I need to do the same thing with my door panel trim. Looking for the best adhesive.

Re: Door panel trim

The plastic studs on mine are in good condition, but the trim piece is bowed in between the stud and the hole where the door's handle-strap screw screws into. So there is some tension. I want to glue it down flat.

3M Weatherstrip cement, Urethane and silicone have been recommended. I don't know what will hold.
