trunk gasket

["paul g. reichert" <ocblue@worldnet.att.net>]

Got me a new gasket,looked at an old lid to see how it should glue on,lined it
up,glued in,but now the lid won't close!Seems the original ones were more
flexible(cheap)and the lid pressed it over the lip in the body.New ones are
too fat for that.Sooo, does the gasket go inside that channel in the trunk but
then it doesn't seem to be able to stretch enough on the lid to go around the
structures there?Help please.
