Window vent Placement?

[Kixwy2]

Hey guys, I need some help with a weekend warrior project. I'm replacing the weather stripping and channel felt in my truck. I figured out how to get the window vent our, and replace the dried up stripping.

My problem is at the "installation is the reverse of removal" part. I can get the assembly back in the door and alllmost in place, but the three vent screws are off their holes by about 1/4 inch in each direction. I've checked to make sure nothing is pinching, folding, or blocking, but I just can't seem to ram that assembly in.

Any tricks or ideas? I was hoping to drive it this weekend, but that doesn't look like it's happening now.
