That one is fairly simple. You have to glue it on around the trunk area. It should be longer than you need, so you will have a few inches to trim away. Of course the seem will be at the bottom someplace. The thickest part of the stripping is on the inside, if this makes any sense.

to do the trunk weatherstrip I put masking tape all around the trunk opening first then I lay the weatherstrip into place & using 3M black glue I glue down a foot or so & hold it into place with the tape folding the tape up over the weatherstrip continue doing a foot at a time , then i CLOSE THE TRUNK & LET IT DRY removing the tape later once it is dried , I also use a small amount of glue to bond the ends of the weatherstrip together , the joint where you stop & start should be at the bottom center
