Those irritating little plastic screw clips that hold in the intake scoop...

I loosened one of them and removed it thinking I needed to take it out to drop in the Works filter. Is there some trick to getting this sucker back in the hole?

Brute force isn't exactly working.

Unscrew it, put the threaded part in the hole, then screw it back into it. Should work.

Thanks. It's pretty sad that I can't install an air filter without needing technical assistance, eh?
