Xbox controller rebuild help

Does anyone have experience rebuilding controllers that might be able to help me out? I’ve got a busted bumper on two of my Xbox one controllers and the replacement parts but I can not for the life of me get the thing back together. Help me electro repairobi, you’re my only hope
