Yes next time I will use the silicon type.. I got the cork into my cover in the following way. Leaving a little spare I started mid way across the top and pressed it in with my fingers then transferred to the vice and pressed it in fully. I continued like this 3 or 4 inches at a time working my way around. The last bit I cut to size pressed it in as before then putting a little silicon on the joint. I allowed this to cure over night before fitting to the car.

Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.
