Because it was too late today and I figured I would see if anyone had an idea.
Turns out, Jake did and responded the following on the specboxster forum:

"Ummn,
Thats a spiral lock..

You don't compress it. You split the lock and start one end of it in the retention groove. You then simply use a small screwdriver to wind the lock into place all the way around the retention groove. Once completely seated the lock will make an audible snap, indicating it has locked securely in place.

Spiral locks always wind into place..."
