Headlight trim retaining tabs 700 1989

What is the trick to getting the bottom tabs on the dual sealed beam headlight trim to lock into their retainers?

Driver's side if locked in, but I can't figure out how to engage the bottom tabs on the passenger side into their plastic "hooks".

I can rotate these hooks, but they do not seem to bend forward enough to slip the trim tabs over.

While I can appreciate Volvo's desire to lock in the bottom of these light surrounds, I can't say I undderstand their thinking with this set up.

How do you take out this trim later?
