Yes, u should be able to just push it in. I think there are some clips that need to click into place. Mine was like that when I got my windows tinted, the guy had to pop it open just a little to get the tint films in I guess.

Im guessing by the pictures, your windows were tinted at some point. I wouldnt blame the quality issue on Lexus, i would blame it on the window tinter.

Maybe the clips got popped out on the inside. The only way to fix it is to remove the door panel and reseat the clips on the door panel.

just like the guys said, the guy who did the window tint should be liable for that, and probably that foam is blocking the clip to pop in, so take it back.

I would avoid bringing it back to the window film installer, obviously not experienced enough and doesn't care to do the right job. Take to dealer and ask them for assistance.

As others have said, your window tinter left the panels this way. He probably broke the clips inside, or just never reconnected them. Take it back to whoever did your window tinting.
