    mine is a betta auto rubber which is very thick at the bottom corner of the top tailgate.

    I have adjusted my latches out to the max and still cant shut tailgate.
    Have tried heating rubbers with hot water and managed to close tailgate for over a month, but still no luck..
    The corner bottom piece when closed doesn't sit in the corner proper.

    will take a pic tomorrow to show..

    I have to say mine was a snug fit(had to push tailgate)But after about a month and leaving the ass end out in the sun(not mine the vans ass end)it closes quite well.
