Finally got around to installing the ram track up top, but can't seem to get the plastic tray secured (as it was when I pulled it out). All side clips remain intact and the center clips did not break either.

It won't lay flush and now comes out way too easily. Am I doing something wrong here? Help! :D

Thanks.

Retired, work is a four letter word.
Sounds like you lost one or more of the little blue clip inserts when you removed it. I lost one also when I did mine and found it in the bottom of the hole.

Is it possible to put in backwards?

So - it appears (somehow) I was able to get it secured by letting the cab heat up. Note to self: plastic doesn't flex well when cold. /facepalm

Thanks @GTGallop + @JesseS for your replies. I really appreciate it.

Possibly the nuts are hitting the plastic in the dash underneath the tray. Try using a shorter bolt/screw if possible. You could also try using weld nuts. you can get them in 6-32, 8-32, 10-32 and 10-24 thread sizes.
