When knocking little panel pins into awkward places, cut a strip of card board off a cornflake or similar box about 10cms long by 1 cm wide. Make a little hole with the pin about a few millimeters from the end and push the pin through it.

Hold the cardboard and position the pin where you want to knock it in to the piece of wood or whatever you are trying to fix. Hammer in with a small hammer. Saves you knocking your fingers and you can often get the pin into places where your hand won't go.
