DawnetteStump Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Has anyone ever drilled and used screws to hold their A pillar interior trim in place after the clips break? I have had them glued several times but the summer heat keeps loosening them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 what kind of glue? A good epoxy or similar should hold it just fine. I would avoid screws if it were me, because my luck would be that I'd go through the windshield, or a fuel line, or cause the airbags to deploy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disbass69 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 I super glued mine in my vert after they broke Seemed to work ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galaxie500XL Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Some genius used screws on the driver's pillar on my car...looks terrible. I've considered if I ever find another '95 pillar trim, if the tabs are broken, using Velcro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) might not be you guys` thing but over the years when pieces of my trim came off due to whatever I got some adhesive backed Velcro strips and pads that hold everything on there better than anything else. Plus if you ever had to get behind the trim piece its not a permanent bond like glue is. ^ didn't see the post but is seems like I'm not the only one who thought it was a good idea.

DawnetteStump Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 What brand and type of velcro did you use? I have used 3M and it worked for a while but the heat loosend the glue and they wouldn't stay in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
