1937 120 door weatherstrip

Hello. Does anyone have any ideas on how to install the door weatherstrip in a 120C Touring Sedan? The weatherstrip is formed so that there is a tab that goes into a slot on the door. I can get it to slide into this tab for a little ways, but then friction takes hold and I cannot get it to move any further, even when lubricating the weatherstrip. I have tried inserting one side of the tab and then using a dull instrument, namely a screwdriver, to try to get the tab to go into the other side of the slot. Frankly, I am out of ideas and I was hoping that some of you might have done this before and have the technique. YouTube has not been much help, either. Thanks to all for any information that you might be able to impart.
