Is it just me? Headlight adjustment screws!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Another case of simple stupid has got me stumped.
I'm trying to replace the headlight adjuster screws and the plastic clips that they screw into. I've bought and broken 3 of these clips trying to get them to seat into the square hole in the core support. I thought it was just cheesy Chinese quality so I bought some from LMC with a recent order. Looks identical to the local parts store pieces.
The issue is they will not clip into the hole securely. I can't pull them thru far enough that the tabs lock them in place. Is there a secret to this?
