Another trick I use is I pull the rope end in a circular motion so it doesn't tear the rubber and this will walk the lip in. I also use a plastic glass knife when I get to the top corners to help pull the inside lip around the pinchweld. And if your glass needs a little pursuasion down or centered, hit the face of the glass from the outside with your palm(like you were falling down on it with your hands out) in a downward motion. If the gasket and glass are well lubed it will slide in the gasket. Good Luck!
