I've heard vaseline is bad for latex, they taught me that in health class I think. But I don't know about rubber, so I used a fair bit of vaseline this time around.

In some ways it made things harder, as the window slid around very easily. On the other hand it made things simpler to align and center, for example. So on a future install I'd still recommend it.
