'72 C20 - installing grille mounting clips
Hi team, does anyone have any tricks for installing the white, push-in grille mounting clips? See pic. These are the clips that mount the grille to the grille surround. I bought new ones from LMC Truck and I'm absolutely stumped as to how to get them in - the amount of force needed to get them in is beyond what I can apply with my hands or any tool that will fit in to the available space (at least while the grille and surround are on the truck). Thanks in advance!

There's a Brother's Truck video on the web that shows how to install these.
