This clip is apparently something that helps secure the middle of the door panel to the inner door sheetmetal so there's not a wide separation..... Does anyone reproduce this clip and was it ONLY used in the middle position of the panel? It may be backwards, I just placed it on the panel to take the picture. Also, the injected panels, has anyone installed them and if so, how much tweaking did you have to do? The panel doesn't fit perfectly on the top forward edge.... Thanks in advance...

The driver's door was totally missing.

It did not fit perfectly but in a hot garage with the panel warm, I could get it to kind of stretch over everything it needed to go over. Just a little patience and it went on just right.
