The trick to get them in place is to have the right tool. There is no way, in my opinion, to install that piece into the windshield gasket without the proper tool. I know, went through that mess last summer. I can't tell you what the tool is called, but I ended buying one from a windshield install guy. It looks like a large can opener and spreads the gasket channel while at the same time feeding the trim into the channel. Amazing how well it worked, along with some lubricant.
I spent $10 for a used tool....well worth the money.
