instrument panel frustrations

[msvx95]

First let me bang my head on the wall.............I successfully removed my instrument panel to check my bad light bulbs.
Problem is, I can't seem to get the thing to line up with the three connectors on the back of the panel. Stupid me....got frustrated, forced part of it in place and broke the two top tabs on the front of the panel!!......#1) Does anyone want to sell another panel to me?........#2) What's the easiest way to put it back in?........

Let me guess and say I should have left it connected and not pulled it out all the way..........but I followed someones instructions and they took it out completely.
