Make sure the gasket is seated then park the car out in the Sunshine and let
get hot. The door seals will form.

Subject: [DML] weather seals, and door alignment help


i just installed new door seals on the car and now, after the doors have
been sitting in the up position for a day and a half the passenger side door
is horribly mis-aligned. from the top it looks like the door's 'roof '
section is sitting too far forward toward the windshield, and when closed
the doorseems too tight in the front and too far out, or loose, in the back.

could leaving the doors open for 1.5 days do this? my workshop manual isn't
very clear on alligning the door, can someone help me out a bit more. could
it be the weather seals 'pushing' the doors out of place?

oh yeah, i used the earlier vin's door seal design, my car is a june 81
