Can't get my CAP grommets back on my Prestige Classic!

I removed the CAP grommets of my old Prestige Classic mid to remove all dust and stuff and just to see how light the racquet would feel without it.
But now I can't get it back on!!!
What's the best way to do it?

G.O.A.T.
it's probably never going to fit back on. once you remove grommets, they are very hard, if not impossible to put back on. best to order a new grommet kit. you might try gently warming the grommets w. a hair dryer, but doubtful that will work on used grommets

Yeah, get some new ones. If you still have trouble, heat them up with a hairdryer while putting them on...

so how did it play without the caps? too light?

I didnt play without the CAPS.
The racquet for sure felt real light.
Didn't know that was even possible!
Cuz don't the string break right away when not using the grommets?
