Hi all - the small body-colored keyhole cover on the driver's side door fell off my car. I can reattach it but it is not re-attaching firmly. I suspect that a plastic tab either on or around the lock, or on this part itself, broke off, but if so it must have been a clean break because I cannot see or feel any rough edges where it would have broken off from.

Assuming that I am wrong and that nothing actually broke, is there any trick to reattaching this part firmly?

Barring that, does anyone happen to know the part # for this part and any other parts that might be needed to attach a new one if some bracket around the key hole broke?

Its an '04 coupe, Twilight Blue.

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Maybe this will help, also I think they sell covers on ebay as well.

If your cover is still good, you slide it from back to front. There should be two little tabs on the rear potion that slide under the lock mechanism. The front end next to the handle should click in when you press on it.

 

Here's a site to look up the part number, you would be looking for item #5. Just make sure it's in the right color since it shows two different types of blue, and that it's the left side.

Thanks very much! I had seen their web site but couldn't find the page on there that contained the part. I am going to clarify the color with them and then order the part. Thanks again!
