Can anyone tell me the trick on installing the wrist pin clips in a new piston, for an HPI .21? Thanks

Firstly welcome to the forum.
I've not had a great deal of experience with these, but my advise would be to take it easy. The spring clip is very easy to bend if your not careful. Also I would strongly recommend the use of a small flat bladed screwdriver with a magnetic tip. That way you are less likely to loose the clip if it springs back at you. Be careful not to scratch the piston !!
