Mainly time concuming, once you have done one door the rest are easy, i used K&H contact adhesive, works fine for me

Im sure some will recommend Superglue, but thats a permanent fixture and if you ever want to repair/repaint etc then it will be a lot more effort to remove

i used a soft tacky glue, contact adhesive is what it's called, paint onto both rubber and area it will be stuck to and let surfaces get tacky, then stick together, hold for a bit and done, i got my door rubbers from clark rubber, just took in a sample for reference, glue from there, or repco

You can actually get proper stuff that's specifically designed for the job from shops that sell smash repair supplies.

DON'T use silicon. If you ever need to repaint anything, it may cause all sorts of problems.
