I typically recommend connecting the antennas before inserting the new WiFi card into the slot, since that way you can pinch the antennas down onto the card's connectors by placing your thumb over the antenna and your index finger on the underside of the WiFi card directly under its antenna connector. If eyesight is a concern though, the tiny antenna connectors can be tricky to deal with, and it's important to get them firmly connected, since a loose antenna connection can drastically reduce WiFi performance.
