So in the process of changing the shell of my switch lite, i accidentally took off the clamp that holds the ribbon cable connecting the left side motherboard to the main motherboard. Is there any way to properly fit the clamp back into the socket?

I had the same this happen to me in a MacBook. Putting the clamp back on is possible but very finicky and difficult. What I would recommend doing is putting the cable back into place and securing it with a tiny amount of electrical tape. Good Luck!
