Default 06 lx rear spring swap

Just bought the car, the previous owner lowered it, and i'm putting the stock springs back in. I got the after market springs out by disconnecting the lower shock mount and upper control arm. I am having issues getting the stock springs in, what's the easiest way of doing this.

With a spring compressor, of course.

I was attempting that, but there was quite enough room to maneuver it in with it on.
