I put new rubber seals on my rear cargo doors last year and was hoping the sun would help with the stiffness of the rubber seal. The passenger rear cargo door is noticeably sticking out about 1/4 inch. The door will shut and lock, but looks funny and is not even with the drivers side cargo door. I'm wondering if I got a bad seal.

My 92 worked just fine ....

my 93 is still having issues also ... same seal as the '92's but I think the rubber has been thickened in the extrusion machine just a hair... I have found I needed to adjust the door latch hook in the floor & roof in just a hair to help pull in the door & to make it look normal.

From all my looking what I know is that there are many, many different trims both oem and aftermarket, in all kinds of styles and sizes varying in mm. Where did you get your seals from and who installed them? It could be because they are aftermarket and fatter than the original ones. If the seal part is rounded and hollow inside then usually over time it does flatten out and settle in.
