Question Attaching Pin Boots - Accord Rear Brakes

Changing rear brakes on 2007 Accord. There are pin boots that cover floating pins and they are attached (maybe just tucked in) in creating a sealed environment for the pin. I have a boot that is unattached. Any advice on how to attach it back to that receiving unit that pin slides into?

Thanks in advance.

Well, using common sense <lol>, I figured it out. For others that may find this post with same question, just pinch it with the pin out and tuck it in. For final tuck, I gently used a small flat head being careful not to puncture rubber.

Yeah, you beat me to it. The edge that locks into the hole, can't be put into place unless the pin is removed.
