I'm having trouble getting the last two clips to snap back together on the top of the device. I'm pinching them together at the top, but nothing happens. It doesn't seem like it should be this difficult. What do you advise? Thanks!

I have the same problem. It would be very helpful to get a tip here.

Years later, but I just replaced the battery in mine and figured this out. You have to align the top clips first (and may have to lightly pry them open before you do that). Then bow the piece of plastic slightly and get the bottom clips in.
