There are definitely a couple of details that you have to be told about that help keep everything in place.
I put mine in about four years ago, and so far, so good.

The only solution I'm aware of is the Bristleflex seals sold by Martin MacGregor.   https://www.macgregorukcarparts.com/ <https://www.macgregorukcarparts.com/>  Don't bother trying to order online as Martin just isn't very good at responding that way.  Call him by phone, spend the money, and save yourself hours of frustration.
