I've done it, but I never got to the point where I thought I was really doing it 
"well." First of all it is clear that you have to do it in the following order: 
rubber onto glass, trim into rubber, everything together into the car.

I just lubed everything well with 50:50 detergent/water mix and slowly worked 
it in. There MUST be a better way, but I don't know it. I even tried to make a 
tool, but failed. Something made of nylon, so it won't scratch the trim, would 
probably be good.
