I just bought the infill and used a flat-headed screwdriver. If you get it warm first, either in sunshine or with a hairdryer, it's much more pliable and easier to fit. Bend it from the middle, so you have an upside down U shape and simply slide it in under the lip of the seal, using the screwdriver where necessary.
What I found the hardest was getting out the old screws where they had been screwed through the old stuff, like the window stoppers, etc. This was on my Dad's old caravan. In places, I simply couldn't get them out, so I put the infil over the top of the old stuff, sort of spliced in, like you do with wood! It worked ok and looked better anyway!
