i find if you balance the steel part of the clip only just into the nylon block after fitting it to the pedle, then carefully fit the pedle back in place with the pivot bolt soltted into place,
at this point get you assistant to push the inner cable fully home, now with a long screw driver push the clip fully in,
or the other way i found is fabricate a steel cip holding toll out of a stiff wire coat hanger, make the tool so it holds the clip in a tight folded jaw, across one of the flat suface's that face you when the clip is in the oriantation it sits when fitted,
now carry out the first stage of my first offering above but without the steel part fitted, then aim the steel part into place fully,

I cut a short piece of 15mm copper tube and made a slot across the end to engage the clip to push it into place, it worked quite well.
