Re: re installing rear hatch trim.
Did you get a replacement piece? Or is it the original one for your car?
It really just fits over and tucks under the rear Hatch weather striping.
Hopefully its a exact fit, if it fits down nicely over the hatch motor and closes then you just scew the plactic nuts in.
But if your talking about the plastic hatch upper cover piece it just scews in.

Re: re installing rear hatch trim.
Is it possible to post picture of part you fitting in? I am a little confused.
I Don't know of a part that wouldn't line up, other then the hatch motor cover.
And that would only happen if its the wrong piece for your car.

Re: re installing rear hatch trim.
it hooks at he leading edge. push it up against the glass and pull back to the rear. its usually pretty tight. then the 2 screws at the corners.
