Default Door window fuzzies on 1940 ford pickup

Seems a daunting task. Anyone have some tips? I've never installed these.Kit came with some clips that look like they press into holes in door. Any help appreciated.

You will need to install the clips to the fuzzies. I loosely clamp them to the strip, verify their positioning to the holes in the doors, remove the strip and squeeze the clip onto the fuzzie with pliers, then snap them into the holes using a dowel to push them in.

I install the clips to the door and then install the fuzzy to the clip(s). I had made a slightly offset punch wherein I am able to work near the paint but not touch it.
You will find the fuzzy strips do not match the shape of the door very well and require a bit of bending as they are installed. To me, that's easier when the clips are already in the door.
