Willy,
Did you use 08080? If so, something went wrong. Maybe you didn't use
enough adhesive or maybe you let it setup too long before putting the
two pieces together. 3M recommends 5-15 minutes.
When I use 08080 on dashboards, the metal clips aren't necessary for
anything but originality. It even holds tight on the sharp curves of
each end near the doors.
