I'm trying to install the nozzles for the window washer (the ones that go in front of the window where the fluid comes out). I cannot get them to pop in. I've tried soap, twisting, pushing, using a plastic trim tool to push the edges, pulling from under and combinations of these. I cannot get these to go all the way in the hole. They are the black rubber ones with chrome. Is there a trick?

You're on the right track. Maybe take out the chrome insert first - you can put it in after they're installed. I've used silicone grease but soap could work. Push from the top and pull from the bottom. Pull to one side to get an edge started then work it around - kind of like putting on a bike tire.
