Does anyone know how to get these damn things to stay in place short of glue and nails. I just can't seem to manage it.

thanks

I thought I was the only one with this problem.
I have used double sided sticky b*st*rd tape - came with a number plate. It took weeks for it to stop falling off in hot weather even with the tape on. But, touch wood, it has stayed in place for months now even through the recent hot weather.

Guys, it's easy, I thought I had the same problem on my wagon.

Place the cover in position, pull back the clip part and either slide the whole cover up or down, mine havn't come off for 3 months now.

It was most annoying having tham come off and rattle around the boot during cornering.

Hope it works, did for me.

Skoosh.

I've had this.

have a careful look at the clip (as previous poster said). The panel goes in then slides up or down can't remember which. The once it's in place, a short length of duct tape along the top keeps them securely in place

Works for me and stops them rattling too
