02 rear hatch panel

[kens57]

the panel under the glass on my 02 rear hatch is cracked. I got a new one but I'd like to know if anyone knows what I should use to install it

Seeing as how you've received no answers, I will answer with no answer. Search the forum. There is a thread on here about a Dorman replacement panel. I believe you'll find your answer there.

I tired to find it specifically but couldn't.

Some additional thoughts in a different forum about the issue. Just read all the posts, a couple of them are humorous, but there are some different ideas about what to do with it.

I have heard that the glue used by the manufacturer is actually too strong and doesn't allow for flex...resulting in the cracked panel. I don't know what you should use, but make sure it can flex!
