I figure there must be a trick/method to make the rubber conform to the curve but can’t find anything about that. Has anyone else had this problem and if so, how did you correct it?
The rubber is securely in the channel thru the curve but is “wadded” up at the corner.

If you are not able to get it to lay right, at least it will take your attention away from the headliner gaps caused by cardboard shrinkage later on.  Carl
