ML Door Panels - Falling Apart

I have a 1999 ML430 and all of the interior door panels / plastic compartments have fallen apart and or have seperated from the door. When I open the doors they get hung up on the weather stripping and pull apart from the door. I would have to say this design sucks!

I was wondering if this is a common problem for the ML's and are there any special tools or tricks I should be aware of B4 I pull the door panels off. I plan on epoxying the plastic 'push-pins' to the back side of the door panel and then re-installing the door skin.

Has anyone had experience with this? Is it straight forward R&R? Will the power window wiring require and special attention prior to removal / special clips needed / special tools for removal / etc.

Please help.
