Also, the deep mysterious secret to getting the rubber correctly matched and tight in the corners is the metal trim. It often has it's corner radius' open up on removal, then when reinstalled it leaves gaps to the body at the middle of the corners. The cure is to tighten the radius of the trim, which will match the car body opening. Some use a curved wood block for this, and gentle persuasion. I massaged my metal trim before inserting it into the rubber. Solved a long standing problem for me.
This helps cut the possibility of a leak down as well. A search will yield a thread about this.
