Default door cards repairs and advise please

Hi guys
ive got slight lifting on my door cards behind the handles on the arm rest section, have any of you had this problem and how did you sort it.
Also do you know of any good companies that can fix this type of problem. Ive tried moorland classic cars etc etc but have not had any success.
I have also tried to sort on a seperate panel i had with the same problem and tried to glue it back but it did not look 100% so i dont want to tackle the ones in the car as they are in spot on condition bar this problem.
Any help and advise would be appreciated as im getting desperate now.
I have also tried to buy another set but all the ones i have seen so far have had the same problem
cheers
Paul

I just use a hot glue gun, have to keep re-doing it often though.

Glue gun is the way to go , just done both my front cards today, look as good as new again, for another 6 months anyway
Get the guns at b&q for about £20 c/w a few glue sticks, one of the handiest things i ever bought, can reapir all sorts of stuff with it

I use "HALSTEAD", contact adhesive.
I did for years furnish out trucks with living acommodation for the super rich, and this stuff works, you will need to make a TINY hole(2mm) to insert tube frm aerosol and spray in, it does not soak through and just press it for 20/30 seconds job done PERMANENTLY.
We used to hold HEAVY CARPETS up with this stuff and the trucks went anywhere from siberia to saudi arabia, never had a problem.
It will stick any woven material together.
About £5 a can enough to do ten complete door cars entirely, the whole entire surface.

sorry to dig out this old thread, but its the only one covering exactly my issue. Did you use heat to put the PVC lining back in place? It looks as if has shrunk off the moulded part. I doubt getting it back with adhesive only.

Thanks
