    Do you have all the clips??? Install the clips on the car and gently push the trim down over them...Dont force it.If it wont pop on, something is hanging it up.

    Also, take the time, to make sure all the clips are well seated, and are nice and tight to their pins. If they have anything behind them holding them crooked, they won't hold the trim.
