The "felt channel" type seal that goes on the upper and rear comes longer
than it needs to be. Cut it off with a quarter inch or more of extra length.
Put it in by attaching it at the ends first, then press it on rearward
across the top and upward along the back vertical, working your way towards
the upper rear corner. The little bit of extra length puts the whole thing
under a little bit of compression so if it shrinks at all you won't end up
with a gap anywhere. The passenger side on my van has a tiny gap because I
cut it exactly on and it shrank a hair. Maybe even leave a half inch and cut
a little off at a time until it fits without "humping" anywhere. You can
always cut it shorter, but never longer.

The scrapers pretty easy. They just pull right off and the new ones push
right on. You might want to order some of the clips that hold them on, just
in case some of the old ones are weak and pop off. Definitely do the
scrapers before the feltthey're easier to deal with with the felt off.
