S-10 door seals, HOW DO YOU MAKE THEM WORK!!??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bought a set of brand new S-10 door seals off a board member. I was all excited and put it neatly around the door and closed the door, or at least I TRIED TO. I pushed until it felt like the door was going to bend (goodmark door

) but would NOT close past the first "click" on both the DS and PS side. I can understand the if the doors closed hard for a month or so, but not close at all?

Everything appears fine around the door, except for the vertical edge at the front, that seems to be the area where the seal won't let the door fully close. Is there any tricks to make this work? I just called a couple local yards and they want $40 for a used set??? WTF???

Am I doing something wrong? Any tips/tricks to make this work... it sure is loud/cold driving with no door seals!
