Default Interior Question/Little problem

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/44636/problem.1.jpg"></center><p>Hi All,
I guess this is kinda a stupid question but I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem before and could give me a solution. The problem is that the part of my car which holds up the auxilary guages is somewhat slipping down on the passenger side,(hypothetically by the passengers left leg):see pic. So basically it leaves this 1/2 inch gap where you can see the cars innards. I noticed there was a clip underneath the surface so i pushed up the fixture to find a temporary fix for the problem, but it after about 30 minutes of driving or whenever someone else gets in the passenger side it always falls down again. Little thing but just wondering might have a solution out there. Many thanks!

Default you have to slide it in into guide pins

You would have to puul center console out a little and slide it into guide pins.

Mine does the exact same thing. Never bothered to fix it though.

I agree with scorchi0, i think most cars will have the broken plastic clips on the lower part

Default Fixed It

Thanks for the help guys. Turned out it wasn't a clip that was broken although it was a bit loose. Actually there was just a bunch of wires (well actually just one big one wrapped up) that seemed to have gotten out of the center console area. Anyway, i kinda sinched it to another metal clip that was actually right next the aux gauges. Not sure if that was where it originally went but once i put it there, the entire console hasn't budged a bit. Hoorah one less thing to complain about!
