I believe on a W123 wagon, the wood is attached to a metal piece which then plugs into the dash with 4 nubs. The wood in question typically curves up at the edges while the metal piece remains flat. I've pulled it off the metal backing and let it sit under weight for a few weeks with a bit of success. Perhaps steam would help even more?
If this is what you are talking about, re-gluing it to the metal should be fine. It's still removable. My personal archives have a recommendation for 3M weather striping adhesive following the directions to the letter (glue both items to be bonded and wait). My neighbor is a lifelong glass installer - he recommended a clear silicone which I've had great success with. CR Laurence Silicone Sealant #33S. He's used it with glass inserts on warped kitchen doors and it will straighten them back to square. He also uses it to hang vanity wall mirrors - the stuff is super strong but doesn't bleed through the mirror backing. I love watching him put down a bead around a window perimeter - the finished job looks like a machine did the work. He's tried lots of caulk in his 30+ years and this is the only stuff he uses anymore. I'm a convert.
