You need a special tool to install the retaining nuts. I bought mine from a place where I bought the new retainers. (Sorry I can't remember the name of the company and I'm not at home so I cant look it up. Not much help am I).It is the only way to install the switch retainers without damaging the bezel.

If you don't have the tool, you can use a small pair of needle nose pliers with small points.
Still each end of the needle nose in one of the two holes in the retainer and spin carefully while pushing pressure towards the retainer. Get the retainer started and spin with your fingers until snug. Tighten with the needle nose.
That's how I did it.
