Knocked off the charging port door!

[rosiegirl]

Help! The car didn't alert me that the charging port door/lid was open and i knocked it off pulling out of my garage (stupid, I know). Just the metal cover came off and the hinge/inner door are still attached and will click closed. Any idea how to put the metal door covering back on? I attached pictures but not sure if they're helpful!

It won't just slide back onto those tabs?

It doesn't seem to...there might be a specific spot I should start and I can't figure that out! there are multiple tabs?

Well, in photo 3867, you can see 4 tabs on the plastic plate with the foam pad on it. On photo 3870, there's 4 corresponding slots, and it should then slide to lock. It does look like the slot on the upper right might be bent a little. You might try straightening it.

Thanks so much, that worked! I had to slide it down then towards the car once everything was lined up.
