alright im gonna expl. the best i can.. well i had a little rattle from the rear plastic panel that covers to whole back on the left side so i popped it off to see if i could put it back on better.. Well i took it off and wen puttin it back on i pushed too hard and like how theres theses little plastic pieces that look like little towers that hold the plastic clips to go into the metal on the car i broke one of them. and all of them are connected to a plastic piece that goes all the way around the panel. so how can i fix or replace this i was thinking glue and tape but that prolly wont work any help. thanks tried to explain as best as possible..

unless you're rich and want to spend alot of money for a replacement for something that minuscule..

I have the same problem. Broke the clip. I have just dealt with it kinda hangig. A new piece is expensive unless youcan find a junkyard with it.

Check out the marketplace to see if anyone is parting out their tc. You can also try and check out marketplaces on other sites like scionlife.com, itsmyscion.com, and others like that. You know there are a couple people out there who have messed up their tcs.

If I understand correctly, he needs the piece that the clips SLIDE into. The long plastic interior piece that actually holds the clips. Not just the clips themselves.

yeah for some reason they didnt just use clips. They have plastic pieces molded into the trim as well. And the bend and break

If it bugs you that much and you want to try to repair it I would go with an epoxy instead of super glue. You can always try a plastic welder as well if you can get your hands on one.

the epoxy should work great! It actually held my sideview mirror in place when I broke it..so that might be your best and cheapest solution.
