Where the different pins are to be pressed is shown in the pictures
box_hinge_pin - main lid hinges at the back of the case
latch_hinge_pin - pins on the front of the lid which allow the latch to rotate
latch_clip_pin - pins on the front of the bottom piece where the latches clip to
I printed them standing up with a 0.16 layer height, using a brim and a slow print speed
To press them in I pushed them with my fingers as far as I could then used a flat peice of plastic to press them flush
-EDIT
Added a Pin Set which includes all pins required for a box with labels to help with confusion
