I am trying to install my rear panels in my 94 integra 2 door, the front part clips in fine but the rear trunk part wont clip in, its like the panel shrunk, how can i get them back in?

 

Are they the same panels that you took out?

 

yes, they are the OEM panels

 

i've noticed the same with my panels. i'm not sure how extreme yours are, but i have to pull mine while popping them into place, to get the clips to grab.

 

this may sound stupid but we some times over look the small things. When I took my panels out some of the clips popped of the panel a stuck to the sheet metal just make sure there aren't any still in. I put my panels back in last night just to see what you were talking about and they come out a lot easier than they go in but no big problem. Hardest part for me was getting the front doorsill area to fit in right. It help useing a decent sized flat head to push the clips with metal tip right were they needed to be. Nice gental tap with the wrist and everything fit back together like a condom.

 

thanks for your help everyone, i got them back in, had to pull them down pretty hard.

 

good to hear

 

yeah that's definately a tricky ass panel to get to get back in...just make sure everything is lined up...make sure the seat belt isn't in the way etc ...
