Default Body Trim Popping Off

My 1992 Wagon's trim mouldings at the bottom of the doors are popping off. They don't look like they have brackets, are they glued on? If they do have brackets, then the moulding is warping and pulling away at the ends. How do I stop that or fix it. Thanks.

You will need to buy new clips and install them. They go in the holes you see in the body.

I don't see any holes. The trim is flaring out at the ends. I'll try and post a picture tomorrow. Thanks

It appears there was a pin, but it was molded on to the inside of the trim and it looks broken off. There is a hole in the door, but I don't know how I'd get a clip on my trim as there's no hole, just a broken bit of plastic.

Look really closely at the molding almost all clips are replacable.

They should snap onto the grove in the molding.
