Help needed installing piston wire locks

There must be a trick to installing the wire locks on the JE pistons. The instructions say you thread the wire locks in but I just can't see how that will work. I've installed Mahle pistons before and had no problems.

Help and advise appreciated.

I saw some very good suggestions in this past post on the subject:

Thanks for forwarding the thread! I was searching on the wrong key words..."wire locks". I figured this issue had to be raised before on this board.
