Changed my Cabin air filter and need help

I cannot get the cowl to clip back into the bottom of the windshield

Anyone got a trick to this? I've been working on this for a while now and it just refuses to go click back in

That's the only part I had a problem with.- Getting the trim panel back in place.
5 minutes to change the filter, Then 20 minutes to put the cover panel back on.
