 +To make the installation easier:
 +
 +- Make sure the pins and cables are bent rather flat, so that you have the clearance to slide the socket to its place from the inside.
 +
 +- Use a screwdriver or similar to apply force and push the socket thru the opening, in the end.
 +
 +- Applying the hot glue might get tricky, as the crevice is small, use of a tool might be a good idea.
