Reply to "(04/02/24) Something Fun for the O Gauge Hobby from Menards!"

This was a great looking car--for about 5 minutes. Then the car rocked a little too far on the track at 10+VAC and went dark. There is connectivity from one truck to another, and from one pickup roller to the other, but not from the truck to the pickup roller(s). We've taken off the trucks off as well as the endcaps with ladders. We know that the piece which is the roof and sides fits into the piece which is the bottom and ends.
We ran a pry tool all the way around to break the glue we could find. This car was screwed, glued, and clipped together.

We cannot figure out which way to bend the 6 clips that go from the sides into the bottom. Do they bend in (towards center) or out?

Help would be greatly appreciated! (especially from @Menards)
The trucks are fancy!
