I recently pulled a bag out of my trunk well, and it caught on my trunk sill and broke it loose. It appears to me as if there are some anchors that have bibs on them, holding the sill in place, and mine are broken. I suspect this may have happened as part of some disassembly and repainting that took place last year (my car was sandblasted in a storm on a roadtrip, and I basically had it repainted, glass replaced, a bunch of sensors replaced, etc). Given that one of the yellow anchors is entirely missing, and I can see no fragments of it, I don’t have a more plausible explanation than that.

It appears that the bibs are easily replaceable, and probably something I could do myself.

Does anyone have some experience with this, or tips on it? I’m checking here first before reaching out to Lucid service.

Put a bunch of good high-quality automotive double-sided foam tape in there.

I am concerned the sill will still catch on the bottom, and pull up the tape, but that’s probably a good idea to keep it more secure with the anchors also in place.

There's some tape out there that would never get pulled up! Buy good stuff.
 
Those silver pieces came off mine too. They feel like the most cheaply manufactured part of the car. I've just left them off. Every time I put golf clubs in or out they would pop off. Very annoying.

Rivaled by the luggage bar plastic inserts that run along the roof.
