George,  Someone else asked this question earlier and this is the same advice 
I gave to them off line a few weeks ago.  Note the double lines forming a "Y" 
crease on the sides.  While pressing down on the top of the box use your 
other hand to press the "Y" creases from the inside out to allow you to slightly 
compress the box.  It will flatten enough to go in from the back.  I had 
remembered doing it by angling it in through the front, but it's been years since I 
last did that.  Use the "Y" creases to flatten it a bit and it should go in 
from the back easily.
