Broken trim or seal

Someone tried to break into our Mini one night, and in a drunken haze I think they must have thought the ends of this trim were a manual top release or something. They broke both sides trying to open it.
Now the ends of this seal or trim piece stick out, and the little plastic clips that hold it are broken. This is just a regular R52, not an S if that matters.

I can't seem to find this specific part by searching for "convertible top seal" or "trim" - does anyone know what this part is called?

or does anyone thing a good dab of gorilla glue silicon sealer inside would be a bad idea to hold it down?

(not my mini - but a picture of where it is broken/popped up)
