'04 TL door upholstery :(
I was cleaning my car this morning and I found this out.

3M makes a product for upholstery. I always see it at homedepo. Don't use super glue. It will crust off.

You can probably just tuck it in and it would be OK without the glue too.

I would agree with the fellow Administrator. Use a small flat head screw driver to push it back in the door

you can used "spray adhesive" from 3m they sell at home depot. and use a flat screwdriver to put it in. they use this adhesive to apply carpet on the sub box..good luck!

Same thing happened on my rear doors. All I used was some super glue and tucked it back in.

Pushing it back in doesn't work. You don't even need a screw driver for that, could do it perfectly with fingers but it will come out again.
So yeah need glue

use a dab of glue around the popped out areas then use a plastic scraper to tuck the upholstery back in place
