Airbag Door loose & light on

I swapped to a set of chrono gauges on my 03 S this evening. When I pulled off the center of the dash to get the speedo out the bottom of the passenger side airbag door popped out. It popped rather easily and I assumed it had some snaps holding it in place. As far as I can tell there is no attachment point though and the bottom off the door can just swing open now. Did I break it or is there something obvious I'm missing?

Also my airbag light is illuminated. I'm not sure if this is from the donor car possibly having been crashed(gauges came from a salvage yard) or because of me futzing with the airbag door.

Thanks in advance for all your help

-Scott

Well the chrono pack install is a bit of a disaster. The gauges for the most part don't work. Put my stock gauges in and airbag light is out. Still have the flappy airbag panel issue though.
