Fitting a Renault Megane Heater Resistor (3R68K 1R71K R41K)

Is there a special method for refitting the Heater Resistor (3R68K 1R71K R41K) in a Renault Megane without having to completely remove the dashboard?

The positioning / design of the resistor connector has meant that the part is seemingly impossible to re-attach to the dashboard without it breaking in an attempt to mount it.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Don't ever mess about with a heater resistor. If it has failed, the reason is usually that the motor has failed, so replacing it without replacing the failed motor may well lead to a Zafira-like electrical fire.
