If your really carefull gorilla glue might work. It expands when it dries similar to insulation foam. Of course if you put too much on it would be a real pain to get the excess off.

D'oh! I totally missed that. Now I feel silly. Good on ya! :cheers:

I use hot glue for various things but I find it just doesn't hold that well. Don't you guys? (I think there is "industrial" hot glue that holds better, but I use the cheap stuff). It's fine for helping hold components onto a prototype board or something but it just doesn't have much holding power over time. Gorilla glue is great but it does expand... not only does it get messy but it can push the things you're trying to glue out of position (so clamp well) and can even split stuff under certain circumstances.
What about good ol' wood glue? Or silicone caulk? You might have to use duct tape or something to hold the T-molding in place while whatever you're using dries so it doesn't slump out, not sure if that would damage or leave marks on your cab.
Or try putting a couple layers of saran wrap or something under the t-molding as you push the fin into the slot, maybe it will increase the width enough for it to grab then you can trim off the excess?
