A pair of hemostats helps.  You have to push the panel and the black plastic escutcheon (disc) in far enough to expose the hole in the handle shaft and insert the pin.  That's where the hemostat comes in.

Also, I ditch the spring behind panel.

Numerous options after you have compressed the gubbins to expose the spindle and hole including surgical locking forceps to hold the pin secure while you insert it or use coat hanger wire, sawn through about half inch from the end, insert it and then bend to break off the end remaining in the handle spindle.

Use something long and sharp like a woodworkers bradawl, compress the mechanism and shove the sharp end of the awl in the opposite side of the hole that you intend to insert the pin. The awl will be strong enough to hold the mechanism compressed more or less while you shove in the pin while backing out the awl.

I use two thin screw drivers to compress the spring. And leave a gap to see
the hole in the handle.
I use a straight pick and use masking or electrical tape to tape the pin to
it.
