Hi Marty,

My recollection is that each clip has a "push-in" center core or rod that has to be in place first, sticking out from the "back" of the clip. Then (I think) each clip is pushed (snapped?) into it's rocker hole, parallel with the rocker and with its little core rod proudly sticking out.

When each clip & rod is in place, you then position the molding strip and smack it onto its clip(s) with the heel of your hand or a rubber mallet, when two things then happen at once:

1) the clip engages with the locking rail inside the molding, as...

2) ...the locking rail pushes the core rod into the center of the clip and spreads it, tightening the clip in its rocker hole.

Or something like that ;-)
