Yes there is a closley guarded secret.........a bit of sticky to hold the clip on the tool
we use butyal tape from an old windscreen kit. The order of install is not too critical, but you
need to have the glass out to make it easy.Just seperate the glass from the channel(clean it!!)
install the channel, do the seals. Lastly fill the channel with ureathane,drop in the glass and
drink something cold and wonderful, you earned it!! The thane sets in an hour or so.

I've done them with the glass in -- I tied a length of dental floss around each one to be able to retrieve it if/when I dropped it. Of course if you have the inner panel off that is not necessary.
The 'special tool' is likely fine -- I used to use a bit of bent hacksaw blade but now have this tool from Lowes:

Made for ripping off siding I think but fine for installing those clips to.

I'm needing to replace the inner seals on the Spitfire. Where did you get yours?

Modify the vinyl siding tool a little. Here is how I made mine: https://72triumphtr6.wordpress.com/2013/04/04/making-tool-to-install-weatherstrip-clips/
