Might need to give that a try temporarily until I decide to fork over ~$250. Thanks guys!

This is a design flaw on these cars; The rubber seal pulls at the trim every time you open the door, and over time it just fails. The trim on both sides of my car have come off.
My two cents; Don't waste your money on new trim. Mine came off just like yours. (I still haven't re-installed it.) I plan to just epoxy new clips onto the back and snap it back in, then close the door and leave it for a couple of days. It'll probably come off again, so get some extra clips for the future. (Or don't open the rear doors.)

Good thought. Yeah I don’t use the back door much but wanted to keep car in good shape. I’ll likely find a temporary solution first (3M double sided tape or your glue clip option). Thanks for your advice!
Butyl caulk strip works, too.
