Installing trunk lid strut 140-160

I removed one of my trunk lid struts with the intention of installing another pair of used. But I've changed my mind and will keep these struts for a while longer - they're not really that bad anyway. So, does anyone have any good ideas how to fit the strut back in place under the package shelf and behind the hinge? It seems I will need to improvise some kind of tool to compress it before sliding in place, and I was hoping somebody out there have done it already.

Thanks,
Kåre
