The slot part of the rubber may be too big check to make sure it's the right width. If it is i used a small standard to gently push the edges into the slot.

bumpers

I replaced several rubber bumpers on my car recently (trunk, doors, etc.) and found silicon lubricant helped get them in.

for 70-72 you can reach up under the fender from the front with a pair of pliers and pull the front two in. you will have to take the battery out to reach your arm in there. also, can you take the inner fender loose and reach up in that way?
