Yup, that's about it.  It's real easy to get too much stretch and then 
the material will creep back and be too short.  IIRC, I placed it into 
the "trough" and compressed it a tad as I put it in.  Just enough so it 
didn't pop out. I put the seam at the forward end of the boot(trunk) 
hidden behind one of the hinges.  Others may prefer a different 
arrangement.  After I wash the car I remove the seal and dry out the trough.

Have fun,
