Removed the whole light fitting by mistake

One of the bulbs has gone on my cooker hood - Hotpoint he6tbk - but stupidly before I found out how to remove the bulb (prize out the bulb holder from underneath) I took out the entire lamp holder fitting by releasing the metal clamps from underneath the filters. The problem now is that I can't get the lamp holder back in place! I've tried every which way but loose but can't refit it. Does anyone have any tips?

    The lamp holder Stock Number: ES1127790 has a spring strip that holds it tightly in place. if you have stretched the spring you may need to replace the whole lam assembly.
