Ira, 

Those inner upper door panels can be very deceiving. They are handed but
it's pretty subtle. The ends need to fold inwards and the entire panel will
need to bow considerably to get it to fit into the door. There will be a cut
out in the rear panel wing for the latch rod to access the release at the
back of the door. The panel will need to be pushed way up into the door and
the bottom edge will be the guiding factor. It will need to overlap the
lower inner panel and end up parallel with the wood insert in the door brace
so the screws can pass through the outer and inner panel and screw into the
wood.
