Dave,

Join the club.  I have the same problem with my '89 200.  I don't think
anything is missing, or not that I can tell.  A fiche would be a lot of help
with this.  I'd tell the dealer to show you his fiche on it.

I have to re-attach mine every now and then because I knock it off.  Big
boots don't help!

Let me know if you find a long-term solution besides crazy glue (been
thinking about it!).

Later,
Dan
