Top Installation Issue

I have successfully relocated the pump and installed the top to the point where the only thing I have left to do is push the rubber seal that seals the top to the body of the car. I cannot get this seal to seat back onto the car on the side and the section just forward of the trunk. There has to be a trick to this. All the videos and instructional stuff out there stops before this last step. Anyone have any luck with it?
 
So a combination of parking in the Florida sun, using hand sanitizer and Armor All to lube the seal and a ton of elbow grease has it almost at 100%. I'll keep working it but what a PITA!!!!

Try using a mix of water and dish washing detergent to lube the rubber. Although I haven't tried it you can get a seam sealer roller for wall papering to help push in the rubber seal.
