S70 Door Panel Issue...Not the bubble issue Topic is solved

Hello gang...This morning when I was vacuuming out my car, I noticed that the passenger door panel on my S70 was loose at the bottom. What's weird is, it looks as though the clips are NOT part of the door panel??..Its like the clips are attached to a few black plastic pieces and then were attached to the door panel somehow (glue)??..Now this was a new replacement panel by the dealer for the bubbling issue. I looked on Volvospeed at the picture of the door panel removal and its looks like the clips are attached to the door panel itself in thier pic...What are these plastic pieces that are attached to the clips on my door and why aren't they holding my door in place???..Any thoughts????...Thanks gang....I have an oil change scheduled for tomorrow but I know the dealer will want $$$ for the fix since the new panel is 2 yrs old. I will also post on other sites to get more feedback..Thanks all

There are red and white clips The white slide into the panel from the bottom being pushed upward where the red slide down from the top. Revoval of the white is done by hooking around the clip and pulling down where the red are pushed up. They break easily but are replaceable.

it seems that there is a plastic piece connected to the clips BUT there is nothing connected them to the door?

its the back pieces in the pic that have separated from the door panel...the clips are still afixed to the door itself
