No, I was having issues getting it to go inside the door in several places. . . made me think it was supposed to go on the outside.

In fact, the more we tried to push the wing into the lower corner, the mode the rubber along the bottom would pucker and pull away from the glass/wing frame.

I know I am supposed to expect some issues with new rubber being stiff, but I don't know if this is a "stiff rubber" issue or something I am doing wrong.

I think we will try to seat it again and get the screws installed through the door frame and into the wing frame. . . and see how the rubber looks. Only problem is the 180 mile trip and working it into everyones schedules.

If I need to trim some of the rubber, I need to see a good example of what the rubber is "supposed" to look like all the way around on both sides. I would hate to trim it too short in places.
