Issue with cruise control clutch switch

Hey guys, I replaced my clutch switch for the cruise control on my 2011 GT/CS, now I can’t get the **** thing back into place. Does anyone have a trick?

The video at the bottom details how to remove and install the clutch safety switch.If you are currently not able to start the car because of having the switch removed,you can try the following method to see if it'll temporarily bypass the CSS until you can get the new one installed.Just disconnect the harness from the old switch,insert a 5-10 amp fuse into the harness plug then see if the engine will start.It should work if the harness plug has two wires.The fuse simply closes the circuit that allows power to pass on to the starter,the same way the clutch pedal switch does when the pedal is down.

Thank you for the reply, but the switch I am replacing is for the cruise control and sits on top of the pedal. The video is for the safety switch on the ground
