Angry classicparts rubber stuff

so in process of building my 69 pickup, i bought new rubber while restoring my column.

i installed the column to firewall seal and the column around 4 months ago. the truck just sits, hasnt been drivn(no motor)

i went out today and was working under the dash on wiring, looked over and could see sunlight through the seal.

the rubber has literally rotted all the way around the column,with just threads hanging on. are these only supposed to last 4 months?! lol i am kind of bummed.
