Gotta make sure everything is aligned properly before you can expect a clip to hold.
Ah yeah, that's what I meant to say is just that only one is holding the center portion there. There's definitely other clips elsewhere.

I'm wondering if the plastic kinda gets warped out of shape due to heat because with there being so many other points where it's held together, there's not much that can move out of alignment otherwise. I don't see any way I can shift something to get the hole to line up without force, since the other points of attachment are fixed in place.

I live in Texas so it gets hot here.... Plus engine/road heat.
