What brand w/strips did you use?

If it's hot outside, I'd park it in the sun which would help soften up the rubber. And coat them with some rubber protectant that softens them too. Aerospace 303 Protectant seems to work well for that. I got mine at ACE hardware. Then maybe you can get the t-tops in and mash down the rubber some. That's all I know to do.

The tops will sit high for a bit once you get them in and latched down. I agree with Grandam73 that sitting in the sun may help as well.
