Door card install?

I took the door card off me 67 L79 coupe. I am trying to re-install it and cannot get it to clip on top to begin the process. What is the secret?

I tilt it a little to get it "hooked" then let it down slowly. You may have to slide it slightly to get the proper alignment.

I’m guessing the inside door panel? He can’t get it to drop down into the metal slot next to the vent window? Maybe?

You are correct. Wheeler Dealers has ruined me. I am just this close to calling the roof a "bonnet" or a "boot" or a Knuten Valve" or some such.
