Any ideas on how these fit. Just ordered a new one for the broken offside trim but unclear as to whether they are supposed to be stuck down or not.

yes there stuck down,

best use a little mastix to hold, 'em in place,
the sun dries the pattern ones - they shrink - then blow off !

Mine just clip in but if you are worried about losing them then a dab of Tiger Seal should hold them in place, your mint BM is becoming more mint ;o))))
