Default Install New Fuel Injectors

I am trying to install new fuel injectors on my 2006 Dyna Street Bob. I got everything apart just fine but reassembly has been a problem. After I attached the new injectors to the fuel rail and try to install it into the throttle bottle the injectors will not snap into place correctly. If I push down on one side the other pops up and the same thing in reverse. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. If I just put the injector in by itself it snaps in perfectly but will not with the fuel rail attached. I attached a not very good picture to see if that helps explain what my issue is. Hope somebody can shed some light on this. Thanks

I just attached a better picture

I don't have the Service Manual for a Dyna, but for Sportsters-

Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to new fuel injector O-rings

It then says to install the injectors, position the connectors and then the fuel rail.

Gently press fuel rail onto free end of fuel injectors. Press
fuel rail down until hole in fuel rail molded-in bracket lines
up with mounting hole in intake manifold

Maybe the Dyna is different?

I went to the dealer today to have them inspect the injectors. They said they were installed correctly. No leaks and good to go. The injectors I bought were OEM 25 degree injectors to replace the 8 degree ones that came with the bike. They also updated the ECM. So all is good. Thanks for all the info
