Default help with C5 Leave in Jacking Pucks

OK, I finally decided it might be a good idea to install jacking pucks on my C5, so I bought a set of four.

Today, I tried to install, and for the life of me, cannot figure out how to install them. They fit in the slot perfectly, but I cannot turn them clockwise or counter-clockwise to lock them in place.

What am I missing or doing wrong?

They should just snap in place, no turning.

Which jacking pucks did you buy? I use BMW jacking pucks which simply snap in place with no turning needed. Some do require a quarter turn to lock in place. More info would be helpful.
