This seems like such a simple job that even I should be able to do it. I tried using soap to lubricate the rubber, and I was able to get it about 8 inches into the channel. After washing that off I tried silicone lubricant spray and was able to get the rubber a little further into the channel, but still stuck about half way. Anyone know the trick to getting these in?

As Ron has said make sure there are no dimples in the aluminum trim. I have never had any luck sliding any rubber in (that's what she said) I have a plastic trim tool that I use to lever in one side, works well on the window scraper as well.
