    2023 4Runner. Driver’s seat back panel popped off. Cannot figure out how to pop it back into place. Any ideas?

    Too many to list & Worth every penny!
    Man, that panel must have been really loose for a bit, they never just pop off!

    take it completely off and examine the clips and if it slides down then clips in…..
    Btw, I’m just guessing here. :notsure:
