Hi -
I was on track to replace my drivers side door stop but ran into difficulty getting the new door stop into the door cavity - even trying to rotate it I couldn't figure out how to get the attached bolts past the sheet metal of the door.

Anyway, stupidly I started messing with the door stop itself and managed to separate the flat piece from the wheel/rollers and now I cannot get them back because of the pressure/force needed. One of the ends of the "carabiner" part is not where it should be and thus the whole thing is loose.

This is a very specific question since the stop comes pre-assembled and ready to operate. I'm thinking my option is really to order another door stop unless someone knows how to force the parts back together?

Thanks,
Andrew
