New Sail Panels

I got new sail panels along with my headliner. The old panels have metal "clips" on the back that held them in place. The "clips" were somehow pressed on to the backer board and can't be taken off and reused. The new sail panels are bare backer board on the back, no clips. Any ideas or experience with how to mount the new sai panels? Thanks.

You can pry the old ones off and then glue them back onto the new ones.

You could get some velcro put it on the back of the speaker panels and on the plastic around the speaker.

You could use the superlock fastners they sell at radio shack its just like really strong velcro.

Thanks for the suggestions. I hadn't thought of the velcro/superlock idea. Anyone out there actually done this?
