Wind Wing Rubber Question

I'm rebuilding the wind wings on the 68 and ran into a problem with the rubber fitment.
The driver side tucks firmly into the channel and the pass side is quite a bit looser.
I've triple checked and both sides look good I'm just afraid the pass side won't stay put.
Is it normal practice to not have to use weatherstrip adhesive on these?
I'm tempted to run a small bead of adhesive on the loose side.
What do you think?
