Default Struggling with getting front door panel back on

2012 is250

So I had to remove the door panel so I could fix one of my speakers on the drivers side. Getting it off is easy but putting it back on has been a pain. I even bought new clips but still can't get them all to snap it. The ones that seem like they won't go in are the top left by the window and then the two below it. Should I have the clips in the plastic pane and pop that back into the door or should I put them in the door and stick the panel onto the door that way...

I think it's best if you start from top to bottom. You need to position the panel on the horizontal ridge of the door. The panel needs to rest on that before you can start to push in the clips.

Easier with the window completely down. Hang the top edge of the panel at an angle.
