Seal help

I have a '69 beetle, and I cant get the front window in.
My dad and I have put a rope on the inside seal, and vaseline on the window and the metal. It's really close, but we cant close the gap at the top.
Is there an easier way to do this?

vaseline?   clean that  crap off   it not good for the seal  and use  dish soap instead.  there needs to  be  some  slippage to get it in   and sometimes petroleum  lubes  dont slide that  well along glass edges??. put  seal in first then slip glas into seal work  slowly  around the perimeter.    i used a  hose  pick   to kind of pry the  seal around as i went .      my $0.02
