Damn, I am having a devil of a time getting the passenger side to fit. ANyone have a trick for making this work? Drivers side went in easy. This side, cannot get the holes for the screws anywhere near lining up. Heat in boiling water maybe?

The key is the triangle window gasket. They are a bit&% to install all the way in. From the picture it looks like it's not fully seated. You can try some soapy water to help it slide down the track. The issue is that the window forces the glazing portion of the seal to expand as it seats. Creating a kind of friction lock. I've got a idea for the redesign on these to make them much easier to install, but have yet to do it. Unfortunately the only thing you can do is to lubricate the rubber and try to get it seated all the way.
