I have a clip on the left of my harness too, but I still don it with the clip done up in the same way as Mal describes. I use the clip for getting out of it on the surface and into a RIB.
One thing though, I also put my left arm in first as it has the most stuff on my forearm and the dump on my upper arm. I want to get those in without catching them on the harness and making life difficult or damaging them. The second arm in is the one that might need to wriggle a bit if you can't get your body turned correctly. I usually can't turn properly either, but that is because I am usually sitting on the side of a RIB at the time with all of about 1 square foot of space to work in.
