Boot seal now won't fit

Hi guys,

Silly problem really but it's frustrating the hell out of me. Censored
I've noticed I'm getting some water in my boot well, so I stripped off the boot seal that goes around the car and under the tailgate flap. Condition is ok but I'll order a new one just to be sure. However I'm trying to place the old one back on, until the new one arrives. And every time I get to the end of the fit I'm left with about four inches of spare seal... Do these fit one way only or has it stretched or am I being a complete mong? Big Cry
Answeres on a postcard please.

Cheers in advance. Bushy

I've just turned it 180 and it looked like it fitted better at the start but still leaves spare seal Bushy

Try fitting with a hide hammer or similar to ensure it goes RIGHT in to the corners and edges on the seams. .

I've bashed it into place now with a rubber mallet, then washed the car. No leaks so far fingers X'd that may have sorted it out. Bushy
