Hi -
I just replaced the rear left door lock module for a 1998 VW Passat. The lock works, but i was reinstalling the trim piece that fits directly behind the handle (see item #7 as a reference illustration).
I turned the screw (#10) that is used to retain it, but the trim piece doesn't stay in place. Is item #9 (or similar) used to retain #7? Could it have fallen off (and into the door) when I was replacing the lock module? Is this retention piece replaceable?
