Any chance of a picture as to how you fitted the bottom end of the seal into the curved section of the A pillar.
Maybe these will help. The first two pics are cropped from online images. The third is my car when I replaced the seals.
The new seals will probly be 1cm or so overlength. So I did mine by trimming the inner face of the bottom of the seal first, following the curve of the pillar. Then trimmed the outer face straight across at the point where the curvature starts. Finally, when you have the new seal in place, trim the top end to fit. (It's easier than that description might sound). Maybe another TM'er has a better close-up from their car ?
