Default Door Panel Problem

OK, today I changed the midrange spkrs in my doors. The driver door went fine, but the passenger door panel wont lock back tight to the door. The plastic pins on the rear lower corner wont lock tight. Everytime I close the door, the panel pops out about 1/4".
Anyone else have this problem?

You may need to replace the fastener. They can be damaged pretty easily if they're not lined up when you re-install. It should be something you can get from the parts window at a nearby dealer. They do wear out and some folks change them pretty much every time they pop the panel off.. though mine have been off & on 3 times so far.

Thanks Dan
I already paid a visit to the dealer ($4 a pop). Do the pins come with the receivers that snap into the door
