Default 1994 Door Panel issues

On my recently acquired '94, the door panel is separating from the outer skin at the rear of the panel all along where the latch is, for lack of better terminology. Unlike some of the older C4's, it does not appear to have a screw in this area but it looks like there is a tab of some sort that should be in there. Does anyone have info on where to look to re-afix the panel?

Take a inch and a half screw and put it in a pre drilled hole at a slight angle so it hooks on the door frame. If done right the screw head will be totally hidden by the door sweep rubber.

Thanks, that is the most direct route I was thinking of.
