On s1 or s2, some oil, grease, spit will lubricate it enough to slide on easily.
If you've got s3, and have bought "quality stainless clips", bun them and find some original ones. They're about 25% too small.

S1 or S2 just stick them in a mug of boiling water for 5 mins, should go on easily enough without the need to extra lube.
S3, unless you are really being picky about looks underneath your panels, cable tie them on?

s3 panel buffers,I just open them with a flat bladed screwdriver and push them on.
