Then it happened......the dreaded door won't close. I knew my door gaps were extreme tight that's why I turned the seal around and used the short side. It looked like it was pinching a little around the hing area so I removed it from that area. That helped a little so then I removed it across the whole bottom of the door and that really helped. I was still unable to get the door to shut. I had to remove it all which was a pain but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Guess I'm SOL on door seals. Dan-git to hell anyway.

Can you just adjust your striker plates out temporarily until the seals compress a bit?
