I did the same thing when I painted my car. To put them back on, I started on the edge facing the front of the car and pressed it in and went around on the top and bottom. When i got to the back edge, it was really tight and wouldn't go in. I waited until it was a really hot day so the rubber was soft, and then found a special glass installation tool to press the rubber into place. The hot temperature made all the difference. I'd try heating up the garage and even a heat gun (but not too hot or you'll damage the rubber.)
I don't know what the tool is called, but it's like 8" long and about 1/2" wide and very thin and it kind of works like a giant tooth pick.
