Jimny roof kit was created by Royal

Hi i'm trying to install the roof kit without much luck.

is it supposed to be flush with the gutter? when pushed on to the gutter it seems to push off slightly and sit not quite flush.

not sure what it's supposed to be like

The pieces don't seem to fit mine.

I also tried taking it to the dealer and they claimed they weren't genuine parts and that they should be glued on...

The rear one seems to be the easiest to attempt but the side ones don't even get close..
This is the rear. Doesn't want to sit on for me

Just to say it is a genuine Suzuki kit, exactly the same as the one on mine. Purchased from Suzuki

As Max Headroom suggests, is it on the wrong way up?

i don't think it's on upside down.

i've just tried to fit it the other way and it's even more difficult so i don't think so

i've heated the longer strips up on the radiator

then with the rain they've managed to go on better to the point where i think it's flush

so i believe it's fitted now. don't think it will come off

I was going to suggest heating them. Ours were fitted by a body shop who painted the roof so I never saw them fit it
