how to install cigg lighter?

I removed the cigg lighter, but i cant get it in, its such a pain in the ass. I removed it by popping the plastic white piece, holding with needle nose pliers, then from inside grabbed the lock nut inside the dash with a nose plier, wasnt easy, but i tried for more than a hour in putting in the new one, it was crazy, the only thing i figured out was to remove the whole console, but that i wasnt doing tonight. any suggestions?

There are two screws holding the lighter panel to the dash frame.

The only way I've ever bee able to get them is to use the removeable bit from a phillips screwdriver and turn it by hand.

When I had to install mine I broke the panel off and glued it back on

That piece should have been designed with some clips instead of screws. It would have saved me some swear words, scratches, and sweat.
