32 cowl to firewall rubber installation

[NRolfes]

Help, I am putting the body of my ‘32 Tudor on the frame and running into problems with installing the rubber welting between the firewall and cowl. I installed the firewall and than lifted the body with the help of friends onto the frame and firewall. I have read a number of posts discussing the issue but I have not found any addressing how to get the rubber between the cowl and firewall. I have read posts discussing where the reproduction rubber is thicker and harder than the original. I do not have an original so have to use the reproduction and it does not look like it will fit on the sides. Would adding a lubricant to the rubber help? Is there a specific way to achieve installation? Does someone make an exact replica?
