Well, I managed to get both latches on but now I can't lock them into place. Feels like it's going to break if I try.

If your putting on the stock heatsink... yes, it will feel like your gonna break it.. Its a really snug fit.

Wow, you're right lol. I crossed my fingers and kept pushing on the locking mechanism and it made it over safely. Thanks!
