lol I haven't had to do it on my current car ('92 GS) but I did on the '94 RS I had a few years ago. If I remember right I held it in place with some needle nose pliers and used a flat bladed screwdriver to push it on. While my hands were doing that, I was using one of my arms to push on the door panel to allow me to actually see what was going on. Even then it isn't the easiest of things to do and more than once I had to "recover" a clip that flew away. :)

<hr></blockquote><p>I was trying all of that, expect for the needle nose pliers, didnt have any on me at the time, but yah, the clip would fly away sometimes. At one point, I hadthe clip in at the top, but for the love of god, this thing would not be pushed down in through it, it wouldnt go!! Is there anyway else or just trial and error. And where can I get a new little clip like that?? Thanks again guys!!<p>Claudio
