It sounds like you're using the no-solder spring headers for your Lily58 build, which should allow you to install the nice!nano and nice!view without soldering. If you're not seeing the no-solder spring headers in your package, here are a few things to consider:
1. Check the Package: Make sure to thoroughly check all packaging materials, including any small bags or compartments, as the headers might be in a separate section.
2. Order Confirmation: Double-check your order confirmation to ensure that the no-solder spring headers were included in your order. If they were not listed, you may need to contact customer support for assistance.
3. Installation Process: For the no-solder headers, you simply insert them into the PCB without soldering. Make sure the plastic part of the header is pushed down into the PCB, ensuring a snug fit.
4. Alternative Options: If you cannot find the no-solder headers, you can consider using the included headers, but this will require soldering. If you choose this route, follow the soldering guide provided in the documentation.
If you still can't find the headers or have further questions, please refer to the troubleshooting section in the documentation for additional guidance. Good luck with your build!
These are the no-solder spring headers.

You should ignore the standard headers that came in the same bags as the nanos and views: those would only be needed if you were soldering

Yeah. I would expect them to require a little bit of force to snap into place. About the same amount of force as assembling LEGO bricks, is my guess. (I have only used the solder approach myself)
